One of the things I've noticed since I've been on this forum are various discussions about Breast Care Nurses - who has one, what do they do, whether they're helpful or not, how to access one... etc, ...
I had a breast care nurse sit in with me when I saw the breast surgeon. When the results of the bone scan showed that I was stage 4, straight to the medical oncologist and never saw the breast care nurse again, that was 2016. Nor did she ring me to check or sit in with my initial consultation with the medical onc. Although, today my visit the oncologist, I noticed a McGrath nurse around, sitting in with patients & today my oncologist asked if I had one. Maybe I’ll get one next time
