Hi all
My Consultant will be calling me with the results of the op on Friday
He told me I was clear jwhen he was doing his rounds
I was speaking to my enhanced recovery nurse today and I told her I was nervous, she said if they had found anything they would have contacted me. I assume they were doing the necessary tests on my bladder and tumour etc as I had the op on 4 March
I guess this wretched virus has held everything back
How long did those that had this op have to wait in normal times?
I hope you are all weathering this storm. Fingers crossed that they find something soon, if not to cure then control
Stay safe

Hi Jane.
Great to hear from you as always
It seems to be the norm because its about 8 weeks for me too
I am fine in myself but feel so tired. I have to have a B12 jab every 3 months and that is a good month overdue i always knew when that was due because the lack of B12 absolutely slaughters you x never mind that i have had the op, B12 fatigue is horrible x getting mine done on Friday, so its a kind of medical day. Going to the docs will be my first venture out into the world and I will be in shock no doubt
I hope you are OK

Hi Inanna. I am also on 3 monthly B12 injection for pernicious anaemia. Just before my last one I got a text from my GP saying they are stopping the injections and they have changed me to daily tablets. They sent me a prescription. Hard to remember to take them. Not sure if they have the same effect, time will tell. Wishing for good news for you. Best wishes.
Immediately post op my surgeon said 'no sign of spread', but it was nearly 2 months before he said all clear, but had to be ratified at MDT. Formally got told at clinic nearly 3 months post op.
I'm sure you'll get good follow up with scans etc when you need them. Hope recovery going well.
