281/365 : The scans came back

This afternoon I met with my haematologist to discuss the results of my CT scans taken just this past Wednesday. It was a good appointment.

Only radiologists can make good news sound so clinical:

“Previously noted enlarged lymph nodes in bilateral upper neck at levels II through V now normal in size.”

“Interval decrease in size of bilateral axillary lymph nodes. No new concerning abnormality.”

My lymph nodes are back to normal! Six months of chemotherapy has kicked this SLL (small lymphocytic lymphoma) to the curb, for now at least. According to the doctor, I’m in remission and can expect to stay that way for some time.

Good riddance!
