I was very disappointed in the timeframe from diagnosis until my bilateral lumpectomy, being 2 months a one day. Then a further 6 weeks to start chemo. I am sure part of the problem was I was in the public system and at a very busy oncology department in Melbourne, being ONJ cancer clinic in Heidelberg. I am sure that is not going to be your experience, so I hope I do not sound too negative about our public hospital system, particularly at ONJ in Melbourne. .
I wish you the best, and I am sure you will not experience what I experienced, despite I was Stage 3, I am sure it has left me trying to keep positive, as my name suggests. Are you a private or public patient ? It makes a difference!
