I’m sure the last thing the Queen would have wanted would be to see more delays to people's treatment...
Once I contacted my GP again about the lump I got a direct referral to the hospital where I waited around a week for an ultrasound and biopsy. I'm a real advocate now for speaking up for yourself, it shouldn't be this way but you have to push to be heard. There's no one that knows your body as well as you do, so it's important to get anything you aren't happy about checked out. It might just save your life one day.
My treatment since being diagnosed has been handled really swiftly by the hospital and I’ve had an incredible team of cancer nurses looking after me. My friends and family have been amazing, and they’ve been my full support army throughout. I’ve been taking it day-by-day. Sometimes the bigger picture is too much to comprehend.
