Yes, and I finally was able to connect with someone yesterday at Mayo in Phoenix to set up an appt for June 15th(4 weeks after diagnosis). I'm good with that and it is a relief to finally get something set up. This being in "appointment limbo" was killing me. What type of surgery did you have? What was your diagnosis?

I have Stage 1a ICD, pr+hr+ Her2-. Grade 1; Ki67 1%. I had lumpectomy and sentinel node biopsy. 7 nodes removed, no cancer in the nodes and tumor margins are clear. They refer to it as "favorable breast cancer". Go figure...LOL. Anyway, expect things to go fast now that you are in their system. I had surgery locally but will do radiation and follow-up at Mayo. With this early stage cancer and my age (74) i have the option of 3 day partial breast radiation so am doing that.
