Beverley Callard Told No Second Operation Needed After Breast Cancer Surgery

She will resume limited work commitments as she awaits pathology to confirm whether radiotherapy is needed.

Overview

  • Callard said her consultant reported that post-surgical swelling under her arm is softening and will continue to be monitored.
  • Pathology results are expected in about four weeks to show whether all cancer was removed and if lymph nodes were involved.
  • She said radiotherapy would likely begin a few weeks after favorable results, with further decisions to follow if cancer remains.
  • The actor plans PR work in London on Sunday and Monday, then a return to Dublin on Thursday to resume filming Fair City on Saturday.
  • She marked the positive appointment with a hair appointment and Botox, and she has discussed anxiety about a red-carpet appearance and the need to alter a dress to disguise treatment effects.
