Surgery cancelled

Twinmum81
Offline

I was diagnosed with breast cancer 1 month ago. My surgery was scheduled for this Thursday but when I went on Thursday there to get markers they done more biopsies. The results aren't back so I got a call yesterday to say surgery is cancelled so here I am just waiting and feeling very deflated. I know it's best to get surgery right first time but frustrated they left biopsies so close to surgery date. Is this something that happens? Feeling in limbo.

  • I'm really sorry to hear your surgery was cancelled due to more biopsies needing to be taken Twinmum81.

    I think it's only natural to be feeling disappointed and let down at the moment but fingers crossed it won't be long until they have all the information they need and your surgery can go ahead once more.

    Hopefully some of our members who have been in this situation will share their experiences and advice with you soon but in the meantime, if you'd like to talk things through with one of our cancer nurses then do give them a call. They're available on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m.

    Kind regards,
