I wanted to find out how long I should expect to wait for my first appointment with the oncologist. My diagnosis came 6Oct and I was informed by Macmillan nurse that I could be waiting 3-8 weeks for 1st appointment. This is a stage IV cancrr, palliative treatment only. 3-8 weeks seems like a long time if the cancer is aggressive. Genotyping was submitted only on 14Oct after MDT meeting, although histopathology biopsy was taken on 7Oct. I don't even know who my oncologist will be. Is this normal or what others are experiencing?
