In limbo
Well, I have now been to see the surgeon twice since my mastectomy on 20/11/2013. He is very happy with my recovery and I am now waiting on letter from hospital with oncology appointment.
Have ha...
The waiting game is so hard to play, I'm sorry you are still in limbo. I had my op on 15/10 and 1st chemo on 18/11. I can understand your anxiety at maybe falling through the cracks in the system. I know that the RBWH up here does slow down over Xmas, It's quite strange really, you would think with Oncology that wouldn't be the case. It seems you are being punished in a way for the timing of your illness. I have Xmas Eve and New Years Eve appointments and I'm expecting quite a wait because of less staff. My anxiety is just below the surface, after my 10 hour ordeal on the 10/12, I'm anticipating another marathon day on the 31/12. But I won't let them lose my name again, you are right to keep checks on what's going on. The silver lining will be that you will be well on Xmas Day, take care,
