  • Hi David,

    Welcome to Cancer Chat.

    If you receive a diagnosis and treatment, there will usually be a clinical nurse specialist (CNS) involved - your key worker, who would be the main point of contact at the hospital.

    I'm not too sure what your situation is, but hopefully once you have got those appointments through, you'll be able to find out more about this and also about what to potentially expect.

    If you have any questions in the meantime, you are welcome to give our nurses a call to talk things through. You can reach them on freephone 0808 800 4040 - Monday-Friday, 9-5.

    I hope that it's not long to wait to get the appointments.

    Wishing you all the best,
