evening all, had a phone call today to see if I was available for panendoscopy next Wednesday, so have pre op on Saturday.  Still haven’t had MRI as yet but at least things are starting to forward now.  I expect as it’s too close to Xmas that any RT and chemo won’t happen now till after now

  • The machines work over Christmas season ( except Christmas Day and Boxing Day. There’s  time to fit you in. Some centres can get planning g done pretty quickly but your probably right.

  • Personally (and I have made the choice twice now) I would get everything done before Christmas (planning, mask etc) and ask for treatment to start first thing in the New Year.  That way you feel more in control of the situation and get to enjoy the festive season setting you up for the treatment to come.  A couple of weeks won't make a difference.
