I have today had my last round of chemo. It's been on going treatment since February
First total h then 25 session of radiotherapy 2 sessions internal radiotherapy and 6 rounds of chemo
Just been told we will contact you in 12 weeks for a scan. I have asked them what about my blood which is all over the place and worried as my cancer is grade 3 aggressive. My CMS as only been in contact 3 times since treatment started so I have no relationship with her.
Is this usual to be left in limbo after treatment GP still only doing telephone consultation so not much help there

Hi and a warm welcome to the Online Community. It's hard to read how areas differ so much in contactability. My CNS always made it clear if I needed her she, or one of her colleagues, would be there when I needed them and they would get me in to see my consultant or one of his team. But, thinking about it, it was always me that contacted her if I was worried, not calls from them to see how I was doing. I think it's patients led nowadays so contact her again. If she isn't particularly helpful then speak to your consultant's secretary. The more noise we make, we seem to get results.
Unfortunately whilst you're under the "umbrella" of hospital care most GP's don't seem to be able to do much in the way of making noises but if you're worried about your blood, you should be able to arrange a blood test at your GP's surgery if you explain your worries. The practice nurse should be able to do that.
