Waiting for mammogram results by Maureen

I have been waiting over 6 weeks now for the results of my 5th year mammogram since breast cancer in 2003. I have been going through all sorts of ups and downs with positive days and not so positive nights! No news is good news maybe but it would be good to see it in writing. I spoke to a friend today who only waited 15 days for a result from the mobile scanner! I want to book a holiday but am afraid to do so until I get my results and am keeping all the reciepts for anything I buy!! It seems a bit unfair to me.

6 Weeeksssssss - I would be up the walls. I have just waited 3 and a half weeks and eventually rang my surgeons secretary - she looked up my results and rang me back the next day! Ring up and see what they say?!

ps book the holiday!!

Results at last after almost 8 weeks! Good ones too so I am very relieved and happy now and can get on with my life. I have been very, very lucky. Apparently my letter got lost in the post 2 weeks ago. Wouldn’t you think that in this day of modern technology there would be a more secure and quicker way to let us poor people in waiting know?
By the way Claire…I’ve booked that holiday now!!
