Morning all…I have recently been diagnosed with very early BC after positive FIT test and colonoscopy. However I am not keen to have the op as I am the primary carer for elderly parent, I live alone and work full time. I will not get paid for time off for treatment, so for all these reasons I’d like to delay treatment for 6months or so, but my oncology team are advising against this..obviously!

They have said they can ‘monitor’ me in the meantime..anyone know what that entails?
