Hi Sandra,

Welcome to Cancer Chat. Unfortunately I'm not too sure what you should expect at the appointment, however if anyone here has any similar experience to share then hopefully they'll be along soon.

If you'd like to talk to our nurses in the meantime, who may be able to help more, you can reach them on 0808 800 4040 - Monday-Friday, 9-5.

I hope it all goes OK at your appointment and wishing you all the best,

Hiya,

So my first appointment basically was going over all your symptoms, they examine all your lymphnode areas and stomach area to check your spleen. You get sent for bloods and they generally order a neck to pelvis ct scan for a different day. 

Thats all that happened at mine, if you have any questions just let me know

Kind regards
