Well here we go again. I was diagnosed in April 2010 and had 2 mri's the same week. My tumour was debulked (partially removed) in October 2010 my post op mri will be end of January 2011 and my post op appointment will be in February 2011. Amazing eh, my 6 week appointment will be 16 weeks after my operation and 9 months between mri's. And and I only got those appointments because I phoned the QMC in Nottingham in week post op 10 to remind them I needed a post op mri and appointment. What a farce.
