MedHelp Member's Question

Thanks for all those that replied....

by Ang80, Jul 01, 2009 02:20PM

I went back to the Drs and he referred me for a scan but here in UK there is quite a wait for scan so I paid privately and got in for one in 4 days, anyway all is fine. The Dr who did the scan understood my concerns as mum has OVCA and said everything is ok.

Thanks to everyone who replied.

That's excellent news Ang, I'm sure the expense was worth the peace of mind you have now, but it's too bad you had to do it out of pocket.

So sorry to hear about your Mum, I hope she's doing well.

I have a question about your access to health care, can your Mum have as many chemo treatments, and any additional chemo drugs for recurrent cancer, as her oncologist feels she needs, or are they limited in the UK?

Ang, I am glad that your mind was set at ease. But I am sorry to hear about your mom. I hope that she is doing alright.
