Hi @Jovdp a friend who also had a different cancer said that you learn to be patient. My diagnosis was just before Christmas, at the screening clinic, but my gp went on holiday for 2 weeks before I was able to see him.

I’m supposed to be having radiation, had a video call to meet the oncologist last week where we decided to go ahead as soon as possible. I haven’t heard any more about that though. So I’m trying to be very patient, too. And Easter would be holding things up as well as this Coronavirus.
Good luck xx
