How soon after hysterectomy did you start chemo?

Posted by hlthcr2000 @hlthcr2000, Mar 3 2:21pm

My doctor's coordinator said last week at my visit that she'd send me a telemedicine request for an education session prior to chemo. It will be a week tomorrow and I haven't heard from her. My hysterectomy was a month ago this coming Friday. My daughter - who has a solid biotech background- is questioning the wait and thinks I should call twice a day every day until they schedule that call and give me a chemo schedule. Opinions? Experience?
