There was a multidisciplinary team meeting to go over exactly what was the best pathway for my particular breast cancer Then I was given toe advice as to the choice and why.
There could be several reasons why they haven’t got back to you. It could be a scheduling problem at the hospital you be be attending also if you scroll down to the groups section there is a link to join living regional just request to join there will be people on there that can fill you in on services available for living regional. And what the wait times for them was like. It probably wont be actioned till tomorrow though

I hope you get your plan soon a week feels like forever And the waiting messes with heads as well
I hope you have a good support team family or friend that you can trust to have with you at appointments due to the brain fog I often miss bits.
