Hi there. I'm driving myself mad! I was diagnosed with Ovarian cancer in September 2023, had a big operation with the removal of the cancer. I had chemo and four weeks ago I had my check up scan. I have an appointment next week face to face. The reason I am so worried is that last week I had a call to say my appointment was to be a telephone appointment. However today I have had a call to say it is actually a face to face appointment. I feel like it's going to be g to be bad news as I felt a little better when I heard it was a telephone appointment. Can anyway advise if they had a face to face or telephone for their first post chemo/scan appointment?
Hi Moo19 and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.
I’m Anne, one of the Community Champions here on the Online Community and, although I haven't been diagnosed with the same type of cancer as you, I know how worrying it can be when plans change.
The online community is divided into different support groups so I'm going to recommend that you join the ovarian cancer group, which is a great place to ask questions, share experiences and get support.
To join, just click on the link I've created and, once you've joined, you can start a new post in the same way as you did here and join in with existing conversations by clicking on 'reply'.
It would be great if you could put something about your diagnosis and treatment to date into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
