Cancelled check up fears.

I had surgery for early stage, contained endometrial cancer, no further treatment needed. I had my first check up after 3 months and my second check up was to be after another 4 months. This was due today. After a month of working myself up about it, yet at the same time looking forward to further reassurance, my appointment was cancelled due to coronavirus. I had a telephone call from a nurse who just asked me if I had any bleeding or pain, and that my next appointment would be in 3 months. I am terrified because I haven't been physically examined, and keep imagining that it might have come back, and that it now has time to get worse. I don't know if 7 months is a safe time to leave me or not.
