When does the 31 days start for treatment?

When did your husband sign consent form for treatment. That is the start of the putative 31days. 

It's a target often not met but try not to worry. This cancer is very curable. I waited six weeks from being given my treatment plan and signing consent forms but I found the cancer a good 12 weeks before that.

Hmm he still hasn’t signed anything! Will try not to worry 

Hi Try not to worry I was put on pathway 14 May treatment didn’t start until 14 July I found my lump in the March but didn’t act on it until May.plus there’s been  Christmas and new year which always adds to the waiting game. If yiuve been guven a cancer nurse maybe give them a call at the end of this week.

Thank you. It was October we first went to doctor and were put in the urgent cancer pathway so feels so slow. He is going to ring CNS tomorrow

Wishing you and your husband good luck.

I had my 3-year review today with a new consultant who said "oh you had a large tumour" - I had been aware of neck lump for months before going to GP & finding out it was cancer. Just telling you this to reassure you that a delay doesn't mean a worse outcome - I'm now 3 years all clear

Thank you, so reassuring and very pleased for you 

We now have a surgery date of 28 Jan. focussing on trying to enjoy our relative normality for the next few weeks before we enter the surgery and then RT cycle. Thanks for all here

I'm so pleased you now have a date for your surgery. Like you, I kept myself busy rather than thinking about the treatment . Wishing you all the best. I hope everything goes well on the 28th. Take care.
