Since my partial glossectomy in April this year I have seen the consultant once in early May. I was clear and follow up management and what to be aware of discussed
After 2 cancelled appt in the summer I spoke with CNS as I had a wobble!!! due to not being seen and they arranged for me to see someone else in department.
While she allayed my fears - I still have not seen the surgeon. So i was glad to receive appt in September for late Oct appointment. But today it has been cancelled. Third time!!
So it is now six months post operation that I have not been seen, While I had every confidence in my consultant I am now becoming rather disillusioned, plus spent several days last week with the burning tongue I have had is past.
Has anyone else experienced this in there follow up treatment? Should mention the agreed follow up was for 2 monthly reviews.
