Surveillance Checks
Hi,
Has anyone else experienced any delays in their follow-up checks? I've had all mine on time so far, including CT scans and blood tests.
That said I'm now overdue for a colonoscopy by 11 months and I should be getting a CT beginning December, followed by a telephone appointment with the colorectal nurses which will include blood tests.
I've not had any letters confirming any appointments and we are only a few weeks away from December
I'm also due a test from the Bowel Screening service, the last time it arrived pretty quickly after my Birthday, it's been over two weeks now. (I'm in Scotland).
I know there is a tremendous amount of pressure on these services at the moment, but I'm interested to find out if anyone else has had problems.
I'm thinking of phoning the colorectal team this week and find out what is happening. it's kind of adding to the anxious time we all have around these checks.
Thanks
