I am on a bi-monthly check up with my oncologist who is the doctor in charge of my case throughout.I don't have appointment with my ENT doctor unless I request. I have blood test every time and ever since completing the last radiation a year ago, I have CT scan, ultra sound every six months. My next scan falls in March which includes abdomen scan and head/neck scan. I am lucky that money is never an issue because I am treated in a public hospital and since I am a civil servant, I enjoy medical benefit. But even if you aren't, medical charges in public hospital in Hong Kong are very low.If I were treated in a private one, I had to pay a lot for consultation , treatment and medical tests, etc.
