Call back everyday - twice a day. In the morning and again in the afternoon. The greasy wheel does get oiled. Then also look into a consult elsewhere. Ask your current onc office for a copy of your chart - your full chart - now - today. A consult somewhere else will want that.

Usually radiation starts 4-8 weeks after chemo ends so you are still in a good window but they do have to "chart" your chest for radiation and that takes a week or so.

You can do this as you have already admitted that this does not affect anyone like it affects you and that is so true. Your feathers are a bit ruffled now so really ruffle them up now and call now for an appointment where you are at now. If you get no results, call in the afternoon and if no results, demand a copy of your chart to be picked up tomorrow morning. Look for another consult to make an appointment with now and make an appointment.

I was never a rock the boat person either until my onc (at the time) wouldn't give me Herceptin. I did the above and got another onc and got Herceptin. (Then my current onc called and said, "Becky, all you had to do was ask and I would have given you Herceptin". I told him I did a dozen times).

Go for it. We are here for you and cheering you on. This will be on your mind until you have an appointment.
