Another dumb question.
Is there a difference between "NED" and "being in remission".
This may sound petty, but when people ask if I am in remission, it bothers me because, in my mind, it means you still have cancer but it has not progressed.
I am told by my onc that I am cured; To me, this means the same as NED.
Am I right?
