Thank you for this information. I wasn’t sure if I could move between private and public systems for ongoing follow up - but sounds like maybe I can. Perhaps I will finish my rad treatment and then follow up with a phone call to the breast nurse at the private clinic I started at to see if there is more than the one oncologist based at this breast clinic. The other bonus of this place was that they did the mammograms and scans in the same building and you pretty much got the results there and then - mind you this did come at a cost. I am probably preempting this phase a little but after the past 3 months I am just so eager to be through to the other side. Just hope that there are not too many hiccups too soon. After 5 weeks of daily rads so looking forward to getting back to gym and being able to plan my days without my daily routine revolving around radiation, doctor, nurse appointments. I have been really lucky in that I haven’t had any side effects at all it has just been the daily grind of getting into city, waiting for treatment/appointment and then getting home again. I am also lucky in that my family are all grown up and living elsewhere so I haven’t had to factor in care of young ones. Hard to imagine how I filled my days before this horrible diagnosis.
