Hello.

I hope you can help me.

I was diagnosed with breast cancer in November 2023. Early last year, I had a lumpectomy to remove a cancerous growth from my right breast and then had to have further surgery in March to remove the lymph glands in my arm, because it had spread.

I had my first mammogram on the 6th January of this year (2025) and today I have received a text message for an appointment next week  at the breast surgery unit at my Primary care  hospital. I haven't yet received a letter to explain my recall, so can you please give me some advice as I am very worried about the recall. I was told that if everything was ok, my breast care nurse would call me and I would not need to reattend until 2026. 

I understand that you can not be specific as you don't know my circumstances, but I would really appreciate your advice please as a week is now an eternity for me.

Many thanks.

Paula
