Welcome to Cancer Chat, mammav.

It's understandable to feel concerned when faced with unexpected appointments, especially after being assured of a specific follow-up plan. While I can't offer medical advice, it's not uncommon for additional consultations to be scheduled after a Lletz procedure, especially if there are any concerns or if further treatment options need to be discussed.

The language used by the receptionist may sound concerning, but it's important to remember that this could simply be a precautionary measure or a routine check-up to ensure everything is progressing as expected. If you're feeling anxious, consider reaching out to your consultant's office to clarify the purpose of the appointment. 

If you find yourself too bothered though and feel like asking someone with a medical background some questions, feel free to ring our team of nurses. They're available Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m on this freephone 0808 800 4040

Once you know more, if you find a minute, come back and give us an update. We're keeping our fingers crossed for you.

With best wishes,
