I just had my post radiation check up and was told I didn't need to go back unless I needed more radiotherapy. I was fine with that as I continue to see my medical oncologist 6 monthly now and also my breast surgeon who will oversee my future breast screening. I think my needs are being covered and one less medical visit is a bonus.
Don't worry too much as you are still seeing your surgeon and he will deal with any changes that may occur.
I just had a chat with my oncologist about how I felt at the end of chemo and radiotherapy - very emotional - and really I think I felt that way because of the care they gave me at a very vulnerable time. I think the letting go can be scary but you are not on your own.
Good luck. Maureen
