    Amazing, congrats on 5 years. My partner was diagnosed for the first time at 27, he relapsed after remission, had chemo, it stopped working, had radiotherapy and a stem cell transplant and is now 1 year into remission for a 2nd time. He's 31 now, and we've just noticed rashes on his arms so we're very worried.

    I honestly believe the paranoia and fear of it returning never goes away, even after 5 years. Do you feel the same?
