Maria,
I asked my onc. this and his reply was the first day of chemo. I thought this was strange, I would logically think the last day of chemo not the first. And for me I had surgery first, before chemo.
I wanted to know because not only do people ask me this question, I don't know why they ask this, but I wanted to know for myself too. But I am not sure I liked his answer. Because chemo was hell and if I was NED the first day of chemo, why go through it. This is my thought process, of course I know why I had to do it. I would like to say I am NED when I have had a PET scan and there is nothing there. I am not sick enough to get one, so for me I don't think I will ever feel NED. Don't get me wrong I have HOPE. But just need to keep my guard up too. Need to be prepared for the worst.
Sorry, I probably made you more confused.
Cheryl
