Hello, I had an 8 week wait to see the oncologist after my lumpectomy surgery, I have a grade 3 IDC, high Prosigna score, so I will need chemotherapy but I'm still waiting for the pre-scans like the echo so it may be a few more weeks before my chemo starts. I read that any delays longer than 12 weeks may mean the chemo isn't effective, it increases the risk of reoccurrence and decreases survival :( I feel very worried and scared. Has anyone else had a delay in starting chemo after surgery?
