    I also was Stage IV NED after the removal of a lung nodule.  That was in 2000.  I then did a 36 cycle clinical trial of leukine (that's almost 3 years).  I tolerated it well – a bit of a hassle giving myself the shots, but almost no side-effects after the first 2 cycles.

    The MM did return earlier this year.  But perhaps the leukine kept it at bay for the 10 years.  Buying time is what it's all about. 

    Best wishes,
