  • Hi

    Not hearing for 8 months god thats long, do you need treatment after the operation? So youll find out on the 17th I hope its all good news, when i go on monday with my mum the nurse said it will be myself or the other senior nurse, a consultant or surgeon from the hospital is that what happens when you go to the clinic for the results?

    Hi Karen,

    Sorry, I missed this post. When you go for your results you will usually be seen by the consultant, who will have a breast care nuse with him/her. The consultant will give you the results and if it is cancer, will discuss any treatment. You will usually the have time to chat with the nurse, who will give you a folder with information on cancer, treatments, pathology, etc.

    If you have any questions, write them down before you go, as you are likely to forget something important in the heat of the moment. Most questions won't come to you until you know your results.

    I hope that all goes well.

    Regards,

    Jolamine xx
