I can't answer for anyone else, but I don't plan to see my pulmo until the six month post treatment mark. I have had enough Xrays to illuminate an entire country and I was getting 2 CAT scans a year. I am not due for another one until next November as the nodule I had seems to have done nothing and is no cause for worry my pulmo says. I know Larry is going to get checked at the VA fairly often, but I am not sure if that includes an X-ray or CAT scan. If a gut feeling counts, I know I am better than I was.
