The oncologist's office called today and the next available appointment is Wednesday, Dec. 31st at 9am. I knew the holidays would cause more delays.... I asked if there would be much delay in beginning radiation and they said it should move quickly. My personal goal is to begin radiation the week of Jan 5th - that's 4 weeks from the surgery date. From what I've read, you should begin radiation within 4 - 6 weeks after surgery to allow for recovery but without waiting too long. Apparently, waiting longer than 6 weeks diminishes the effectiveness of the treatment.
More waiting.....
Merry Christmas Everybody!
