Summary
Two weeks after surgery, Lisa Faulkner said post-operation results showed doctors had removed all of her early-stage breast cancer and that she now only needs radiotherapy in a few weeks.
Faulkner, 54, told followers she is still healing from what she called a "quite a big op" but said she feels well and much better.
A mammogram caught the cancer at a very early stage, she said, urging women not to delay screening because it would not have been detected otherwise.
The actress and presenter also thanked the NHS for providing mammograms and early treatment, drawing supportive messages from fans and fellow actors including Tamzin Outhwaite.
