At the end of August, the number of people sent for urgent review and tests in England was still at only around 60% of pre lockdown figures.

Lung cancer stage 4 and treatment
I am not exactly sure how this site works. I want to introduce myself and possibly get feedback on anyone who is in a similar situation.

TPLL
I want to thank you all again for welcoming me into your community. Mike's cancer diagnosis has been very unique. As has his treatment. I don't recall what I have already shared, but his actual diagnosis ended up being TPLL (Tcell Prolymphocytic Leukemia). His WBC count went from 432,000 on 9/30 to 530,000
