Petition updateProtect Young Cancer Survivors’ Fertility: Fix the NHS Gap After Chemotherapy
The NHS Is Asking If Stage 4 Cancer is a “Clinical Condition” This Is How Broken the System Is

I’ve just added these screenshots because seeing the questions written down in black and white is honestly shocking.
This is what I have been asking the ICB to explain.
They are literally having to investigate questions such as:
Does stage 4 lymphoma count as a clinical condition?
Does chemotherapy count as a medical intervention?
If fertility preservation is funded before chemotherapy because there is a recognised risk of infertility, why is it not funded afterwards when that risk is actually materialising?
What would actually have to happen to me before fertility preservation would be considered appropriate?
When you read it like that, it shows just how absurd the situation has become.
