Newly diagnosed - private or public
Hi Yesterday I received preliminary pathology results which said I have an invasive poorly differentiated carcinoma. There were a number of further points noted but the gist is that my lump is cancer...
Oh yes I forgot to say that radiation and chemo cost a huge amount but even though I had radiotherapy in the private system I only had $2,000 out of pocket for a total cost of $25,000.
I was lucky not to need chemo but I know lots of people here had it in the public system and were happy with it ( well as happy as you can be having chemo!).
