Visits to the Specialists
Hi I just had my first year review scans were clear with the surgeon, in September I see the medical oncologist, in December I see the surgeon I am curious is it standard practice to see both special...
Great news on the clear scans, @Stork
Yep - every 3 months with one or the other (onc, rad onc & surgeon) during the first year or two ... yearly mammograms & ultrasounds as well (unless like me, you get a scare - I've just had one at 6 months ..... and get the results tomorrow ...)
My girlfriend has her MG & US every 6 months anyway & is currently having further tests with enlarged nodes & stuff :(
I think they like to check your 'mental state' as well ..... make you feel 'looked after'?
Hope the good news continues!
