Hello and thank you for your post

I am sorry to hear about waiting for results, and can appreciate that this a difficult and stressful time for you all.

Unfortunately, these sort of timeframes are not unusual at the moment. It does seem to relate to a few factors. In some areas, there is a shortage of consultant pathologists to read and interpret results. There can be administrative delays, as the NHS reboots post Covid. Some biopsy specimens do need to be sent off to larger more specialised pathology laboratories for analysis, and this can add to wait times, depending on the number of samples that each lab is currently seeing.

If you do not hear within the next week or so, then do make contact with the hospital team/department to ask about it. Your son's GP may be able to look into for you as well, but I'm not sure. 

I hope that you will find out more about your situation soon,

Best wishes,

Vanda
