I read that the lab can know the results of a biopsy within a couple of days… so when i had a call from my gp today my heart stopped! Luckily it was just to reschedule another appointment i have… so my question is if results could be known within a few days if it is cancer will they call me before my appointment or will they wait until my appointment??
They don’t tend to give results out over the phone, if you have an appointment then I would expect that’s when they would tell you, I did get mine over the phone as they were totally expecting me to be clear so didn’t make me an appointment but they were really upset to have to tell me that way and made me an immediate appointment to go in and discuss everything properly xx
Oh bless you, that must have been horrible to be sure it was clear and it not be… kind of makes me grateful that my consultant came across so doom and gloom…! Just have to keep busy until thursday… 4 days down, 6 to go… xx
I admire your strength and positivity. Gives me how that whatever the outcome on Thursday i will be able to deal with it and get through it. x
What scares me the most is that i have no idea what’s coming next… The big lump I can feel is about 3-4cm (though I expect the actual size of a lump is probably very different to how it feels on the outside)… so what ever the diagnosis is it will probably need removing… and that alone scares me… xx
Thankyou so much for your replies. I have felt so many emotions this week and not really known how to deal with them… I’m use to being the strong one and sorting out everyone else so to find myself needing someone to be strong for me has been so hard… and the hardest thing has been wanting someone to just give me a hug and tell me it will all be Ok… and i know no one can do that until we get the results and know what we are dealing with… but im a bit of a control freak and this is something i have no control over at all… so until then it’s one day at a time and take control of the things I can for now. xx
