My first appointment with my oncologist for bowel cancer was a very positive experience. I went armed with questions and he answered them all in a very kind way. My husband asked if there was anything I’d done to cause the cancer, very tactful, and he said no! I didn’t ask about what stage mine was as I didn’t think it would be helpful. I did ask further along the process. If you can write down any questions you’ve thought of , or have anyone close you can ask for their input, it’s really useful. Wishing you a very positive appointment, and lots of luck going forward.
