Hi everyone, I hada recall from a routine mammogram, had 3 sets of core biopsies and a vacuum biopsy. Unfortunately the communication was not good so I asked if i could have a second opinion. This went through and i am now a patient at a different hospital, one that specialises in breast cancer. I am having further tests with them but the hosputal that I left has phoned me today to say that they too asked for a second opinion at a differrnt hospital and that a professor at that hospital informed them that I need only to be monitored for the next 5 years with no other intervention.
I am at a loss what to make of this. Are they saying that they asked for another second opinion because they think the hospital that I chose to attend is not good enough? Or is this normal practise? This is really affecting my mental health.
Help! Any ideas or views on this?
