How long after lumpectomy should I expect to wait until I can fly?
pre assessment nurse yesterday said 6 weeks is normal, but this is the first time I have heard as long as 6 weeks

Hi Anongirl,
Welcome to Cancer Chat. Breast Cancer Now also advise a minimum of six weeks.
If you're looking to travel sooner, it may be best to discuss with your doctor or the nurse to check.
You are also welcome to give our nurses a call if you'd like to talk things through. You can reach them on freephone 0808 800 4040 - Monday-Friday, 9-5.
Wishing you all the best,
Ben
