I’ve just received my letter confirming my NPI call at Mount Vernon for Chemotherapy and wondered if anyone knows how long after the call it usually is to actually start chemotherapy??
Hi Twiggy123
I started chemo 4 weeks after I saw the oncologist. It should have been 3 weeks later but my bloods weren't right so it was delayed a week.
