Waiting for breast surgery

Rushdene
Offline

I had biopsies taken from my breast in February 2022 and was told that I have DCIS and grade 2 invasive carcinoma. I  was started on  Letrozole,  but I still do not have a date for surgery.  I  am very worried that the cancer will progress while I'm waiting. My husband died of lymphoma last year after having his treatment delayed.

    I would ring the consultants secretary and ask when surgery is going to happen, the secretary's have been great pre my recent gynaecology surgery, they rang me back asap and contacted the surgeon for me then replied for her. I have a clotting condition and had worries about the drugs l had been given by my GP and should l take them pre surgery. They replied with a date for my operation. My oncology surgeon has been great. 
    l hope you have your surgery soon.

    take care
