I see either my oncologist or the nurse practioner every three months, but I'm guessing that that's because I'm regarded as high risk for recurrence (HER2+++). Perhaps Karen is low risk for recurrence. In any event, don't feel like you can't book a follow-up every year... tell her you want a breast exam, for example, or that you feel a lump which you want her to check out. If you're as lumpy as I am, there are plenty to choose from!

I see my oncologist every 6 months and I am 6 years out but fell in high end of low recurrences on geonomic test. 2 lymph nodes positive
