Hi I have had numerous biopsies taken recently from my neck and tongue and I am going to have some lumps removed from my neck soon. My pre op assessment is next week.

I work in an office environment and also as a support worker for a drugs and alcohol service have one to one face to face appointments with clients  as my lymphatic system is where the cancer is and have low immunity would I need to self isolate. I am afraid of my surgery being put off if I contract an infection due to my working and being left waiting for surgery for another opportunity.

My consultant is not happy as I first went for help about my growths to my GP in November and was dismissed by them and so now at a stage the growths have grown larger and need to be dealt with ASAP

Many thanks
