Hi
I have a review coming up in January and I have been in some pain on the side of my op and under my arm. Should I contact the hospital prior to going as I think I would like to have a scan or ultrasound to look if there is anything else happening, even if its just to put my mind at rest
Hi and a warm welcome to the Online Community, a Community that no one really looks to see themselves joining.
From my many years experience on the cancer journey you call everything into your team just incase.
A cancer journey can bring a lot of confusion, stress and many questions but talking with other people who are on the same type of journey can help a lot.
The Community is organised into support groups so you may want to start by joining our supportive Breast cancers group as you will connect with others walking the treatment journey both as patient or family.
Follow the above link then choose ‘click to join' or ‘join’ when the page opens. You can then introduce yourself, post questions or just join in with existing discussions by clicking on 'reply'.
All the best.
Whatever cancer throws your way, we’re right there with you.
We’re here to provide physical, financial and emotional support.
