Hi
My onc. doesn't do any follow up tests. If I complain about
some pain, then I have scans.
Right now I have check-ups at my cancer centre every 3
months. I think it will soon change to 4-6 months. I get
a very thorough physical examination.
Other than that, I have a
mammogram and bone density test yearly. He does not do
tumour markers. I think it depends on your onc.
