Once your treatment is over, your doctor will want to see you for regular check-ups. This is known as follow-up. These visits will continue for the rest of your life. At the check-ups, you may have tests like a physical exam, X-rays, scans and blood tests. If you are between check-ups and have a symptom or problem that worries you, let your doctor know without delay.
There are many cancer support centres and voluntary groups around the country. If you feel they could help you and your family, call the National Cancer Helpline on 1800 200 700. The Helpline nurses can give you more information on counselling or support groups in your area.
We can also help you cope with the emotional effects of a cancer diagnosis.
