My daughter in law has just been diagnosed with 3x stage 3 tumours in L breast and 1x stage 2 tumour in R breast. Cancer has spread to L lymph nodes, no cancer detected in R lymph nodes. She has been advised she will need mastectomy L breast, lumpectomy R breast, full clearance of L lymph nodes, and chemotherapy. I am assuming that speed is of the essence and yet five weeks after initial diagnosis and 8 weeks after finding first lump she is still awaiting some test results to determine the treatment plan, surgery and chemo dates.
I feel this would be treated with greater urgency at a hospital in Leeds, but she is not so sure that transferring now would delay even further.
She is 30, my son is 28.
We would appreciate any advise, thank you
