This is excellent news. It is possible that your xPAP therapy may be responsible for a small part of this by removing some stress from your body while you sleep. When you reach 100 we will have to all get together for a celebration.

Eliminating some of the stress, definitely. My very healthy diet eliminating my IBS, and keeping blood pressure, cholesterol, blood glucose, and other things well in normal range also, doesn't hurt.

Yeah, wonder where we'll be in 2052? And what they'll be using instead of xPap!

Time to update this thread!!

I've mentioned having had surgery for endometrial cancer on 7 April 2008. For my first two years, I had to have labs every four months. All of them were NEGATIVE.

At my visit in January 2010, the oncologist told me it could now be every six months. And that the labs could be done by my regular gynecologist -- that she (the oncologist) didn't think I needed her any more!

I have just received my results for the December 2011 labs -- NEGATIVE!

Only one point five more years until I can be declared cancer-free... and take the dream vacation Harry and I have been thinking of through the Canadian Rockies... on the Rocky Mountaineer.

Kathy,

Things are going decently. Been really busy of late. Hope all is going well with you, also! Can't wait to be able to post the "Cancer Free" evaluation in a year and a half!

Who would have thought that nothing (a negative report) would be such a wonderful Christmas present.
