Re: No more visits to Onc- is this right?
My onc. followed me for 5 years also. Actually, I saw him about 6 months prior to my 5 year mark and he gave me the choice. I could continue to see him once a year (if that would make me more comfortable) or I could see a doctor where I live, that I trusted. I opted for the latter of the 2 options. I definitely would NOT have felt comfortable at 2 1/2 years out being told I was finished with my oncs care.
