Hi folks. Had my first CT scan since my treatment ended 5 months ago and it was negative. Can't tell you what a relief that was. By the way, I was posting as Lamont but, my computer crashed and I had to re-register and it wouldn't let me use that name as it is already taken; by me.

Great news!

you could attempt to login as Lamont, since you do not know the password anymore (probably), just ask the system to send it to your email (the one you gave under Lamont, that should do the trick.

I misplaced my pasword and I recovered it this way

Best

Markus- the problem is Lamont was registered to my old email account which was discontinued. Since I have a new email account, Lamont is not connected to it.
