4 year post chemo
You know cancer has not consumed your life any longer when your oncologist has to remind you how many years you are post chemo. But you know you're not totally out of the woods if you still have to see an oncologist. I've finished 2023 strong with clear scans 4 years post chemo!

Year 5 is the biggest milestone a cancer survivor can accomplish - besides living out many many more years! Some side effects that will alway be constant reminders: ~My hair grew back thinner ~I still don't have any eyebrows - hoping to get microblading soon ~I still suffer from neuropathy in my hands and feet A question that I get often is, "What symptoms did you have?"

I'm a person that takes good care of myself by eating healthy and exercise
