What to expect in the first year

Less than one minute read time.

When my oncologist first talked to me about my diagnosis and we discussed a treatment plan he told me that the cancer would take a year out of my life……and he was right.

“What can I expect” is a common question from patients newly diagnosed and one that we on the Macmillan community spend a lot of time answering. We are all different. Some people sail through relatively unscathed yet others find their soul at death’s door. Yet there is a common denominator.

Please do ask members of the head & neck cancer forum if you have questions around what to expect.
