My mother-in-law is a survivor of COLON CANCER (5 yrs strong) and she does continue to go for yearly check-ups and her doctor always does blood work for her over all health, as well as for confirmation that her cancer is still in remission.

BTW - I do believe she went for check-ups every 4 to 6 months for a while following her surgery five years ago, to remove the cancer.
