Hi I’m new!

HI Belinda. Sorry you find yourself here with the rest of us but it is a good place to ask questions. I didn't hear anything after my lumpectomy until my results cam through which took a while. You can always call the BCN if you have questions or concerns. Mine did ring once to see if I was doing the arm exercises. The waiting is the hardest thing. Concentrate on recovering from the surgery, put your feet up and ne kind to yourself while you wait. I hope your recovery and next steps go well xx

Hi Heaven2021
Thanks so much for your encouragement, definitely helps a lot. I am taking it easy, enjoying not being at work and indulging my hobby of knitting!

Many thanks again xx

Hi Belinda.  I  had a clinic appointment two weeks after surgery. You could ring the BCN, I have tended to have to contact them if I wanted to speak to them but they have always been welcoming and helpful when I have

Good luck and happy knitting

Xx

Normally there is a follow up with the surgeon. Some hospitals prefer to wait until the pathology report is in, so that you can be given the results at the same time the surgeon checks that recovery is going as expected and all is well, other hospitals keep these two issues separate, let the surgeon do the follow up regardless of whether or not pathology has already delivered their report, and let the oncologist tell the patient, at a separate appointment, what the report said and what the treatment plan is.

Because of the time frames involved, if the hospital separates the two issues, the surgeon's follow up is likely to happen first (many of them like to see the patient about two weeks after surgery.)

I have seen here some posts from ladies who said their results were given to them over the phone by their nurse, but I don't think this is common. 

I expect you will be hearing from your nurse, or letters may arrive with appointment dates, soon.

If there is no contact after two weeks, I'd call the nurse.
