Post radiotherapy check

I have just been to see the oncologist who did my lumpectomy after I have just completed radiotherapy

I will not see anyone else now for 12 months - except for a bone scan

I am feeling frightened and alone - although I have lovely family

Is that something others can relate to?

 

 

  • I'm sorry you're feeling frightened and alone at the moment Plb.

    I've come across many posts on the forum from members feeling exactly the same way when their treatment has come to an end and their appointments become fewer and far between so I'm sure some of them will be along soon to offer their support and advice.

    In the meantime, if you'd like to talk things through with a member of our cancer nurses team then do give them a call on 0808 800 4040. Their phone lines are open Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m.

    Kind regards,

    Life is looking better today!
