    Hi Collkaa,

    A very warm welcome to our forum.  Unfortunately, it normally takes 1-2 weeks to get.the results of a breast biopsy. This is pretty normal and most surgeons like to give the results face-to-face, irrespective of the outcome. This is always a worrying time. Try to keep yourself busy meanwhile, as this helps to pass the waiting time. 

    I sincerely hope that all turns out well for you. Please keep in touch and let us know how you get on. We are always here for you.

    Kind regards,

  • Hello there

    I am sorry to hear about your situation and appreciate this must be a worrying time for you.

    Unfortunately as another forum member says it usually takes 2 weeks for biopsy results to come back so try not to read too much into the situation until you know more.

    Keep yourself busy and your mind on other things if you can.

    Get back or give us a call on 0808 800 4040 if you want to talk things through.

    I hope everything is okay for you.

    Take care
