  • Hello Sjameson

    I'm sorry to hear that you've recently been through treatment for breast cancer and that now some further tests are being requested due to areas of concern on your lung and kidney being identified. It's completely understandable that you're feeling lost in all of this news. 

    It's good to hear that a CT scan has already been booked although it is a few weeks away yet. You could always give the department a call and let them know that you're able to attend cancellation appointments if this is something that you could do. 

    In the meantime, I wonder if you might find it helpful to talk things through with one of our nurses. I know they will be happy to listen and offer any advice, information and support they can. They're available Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm on 0808 800 4040. 

    I hope that you don't have to wait too long for news Sandra. Please keep in touch with us here at Cancer Chat if it helps to have a safe space to put down in writing how you're feeling, ask questions or chat with others who might understand. We're here for you. 

    Best wishes,
