Breast Cancer in Men: Diagnosis & First Appointments Pack
This pack is written for men. It keeps your tests, results, contacts and questions in one place.
Men can get breast cancer too, but the information you are given can feel as if it was written for someone else. Copy results in the team's own words, letters and numbers. Anything you are unsure about becomes a question for the next appointment. It does not explain what your results mean for you, or recommend treatment. UK-focused.
