Re: when did you 'break up' with your onco?

I am 11 years out and still see my oncologist once a year. The appointment gives me confidence and I consider it an insurance policy. They have not said anything like I need to stop coming. Who knows, that might happen next year! I am guessing each oncology office has a different policy.
