Sorry if this is on the wrong thread but i'm not sure where to put it

Nearly 2yrs ago i had surgery to remove a sarcoma (no treatment afterwards as not needed). My 6 month scan was clear and i had another scan 4wks ago to check if it had come back. The hospital have rang today and told me they had booked me in next Friday to see a member of the surgery team. I am abaolutely terrified and beside myself with worry. I am a single parent to a very young child who has no contact with dad due to domestic abuse. I barely have any family/friend support. If the cancer is back i really don't know what i will do. I feel physically ill

Good luck. If it’s any help, my husband had a similar but different experience recently. He’d been having investigations for bowel cancer and got a letter out of the blue inviting him back for a CT scan.

He had no idea why this was necessary and rang the hospital where he was given the runaround. He then rang his GP surgery and a receptionist called the hospital on his behalf and told him it was a routine checkup to ensure that everything had been caught at the other appointments.

I hope today goes well for you. x

Sending lots of love and positive thoughts OP

Hope the fact it's a surgeon you are seeing means if there is recurrence it can be surgically cured and they have a plan for that. People will want to help with childcare etc, please don't feel you can't ask.
So sorry you've had such a hellish week, think we would all feel exactly the same xx

This makes me so angry. They have no right to make you wait for so long. They seem to be unaware that this sort of stress can be really awful - or they know but don't care.
You need to contact them and insist on being told the reason for the appointment.
