My GP was on holidays when I was diagnosed through Breast screen.

Tomorrow I will see my GP for a look see after my major surgery last Monday. I have a 6 month recovery ahead of me.
i can ask and discuss any concern and he always says it's worth having it checked.
Long winded response but don't put any niggles off get them checked.
Take care
