Webcast:
Just diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer, what’s next?
This month we hosted a webcast, ‘Just diagnosed with metastatic
breast cancer, what’s next?
We heard from Medical Oncologist Professor Fran Boyle,
Metastatic McGrath Breast Care Nurse Alice Gibson, BCNA Consumer Representative
Ros Casperson and BCNA member Cybele Orton.
The webcast addressed what is important to know in those first
few weeks after a diagnosis of metastatic breast cancer including navigating
the health system, treatment options, identifying key members of your treating
team, and the support and care available to you.
