@Sister Glad to hear you will be having the counselling & hopefully you will qualify for the test. Peace of mind for you & your familiy & the counsellors are great. I had my test at the Lyall McEwin but I know they do it at the QEH also. It takes about an hr for the "chat" & take/make notes if you get to go as they love to make you do the talking as counsellors do!! It usually takes around 6 weeks to get the results but they are rushing mine through in about 3 weeks as they knew my rad is dependent on the results. if i had to wait 6 weeks I would be a basket case but each day that passes is one day closer!! Hope you are going OK. i reckon you would nearly be starting chemo now if my memory is correct. Thoughts & prayers are with you as you begin the next phase. Hugs to you & keep me posted on your progress. xx
