Diagnosis moved on quickly, but I can't get any timescale for my ovarian cancer surgery or pre-op. This is because all the needed beds are still full of covid patients.
Is anyone else having the same problem?

Hi . Welcome to the Online Community. I have a different cancer than yours but noted this post in "New to the Community". I see you've joined the Ovarian cancer forum so perhaps you might re-post there and hopefully someone will come along and answer soon.
I do feel that Covid is still impacting on delays but I'm sure as soon as it's safe to do so, they'll get you in. Not an ideal situation but I would say my sister in law contracted pneumonia, went in to hospital, got Covid and never came home.
Stay safe, sending hugs, B xx
