@Dandelion Sorry! I read your post/update and was FUMING!!!! Firstly, how dare your Oncologist tell you what you should or shouldn't do!!! You know yes, lots of women work through and lots don't. I worked through first diagnosis rads in 2011, but 2015 there was no way through chemo. So what you do is go to your Radiologist, they are the one you need to speak to about it, you are entitled to use your Income Protection. My Oncologist only did mine I believe as I was suffering from the effects of chemo and said it can take a year or more to get over it. the other thing he documented in my paperwork to the insurance company was of Arimidex I am on and side effects that will prevent me working successfully in a full time capacity at what I do whilst I am on it.
So deep breath, the Oncologist only has to fill in the information of your diagnosis, the Radiologist should be able to take it from there. So go and see them, dont give up just yet! You could even take it up with your GP, as long as you have all your reports, they can recommend I think too. Hugs Melinda xo
