Hello everyone 

I'd appreciate thoughts.  I have been fairly newly diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer which has spread to the lung (small patches). Not to bone.  I'm 68.  I'm concerned that since reporting to the GP in January I'm now mid April and still no chemo.  I think it may start next month.  When I expressed my concerns on the phone to my consultant oncologist today, she said she'd had to move people from her list to fit me in for a face to face appointment next week.  Is a delay of 3 months from GP to start of chemo normal? I understand they need to do many tests, but there seems to be such long waits at every stage.

Thank you for any views.
