Hi

I was diagnosed with a complex ovarian cyst in June and after an MRI was told i needed a hysterectomy urgently as they could not determine if the cyst  is malignant or not. I have seen the consultant who has said it looks like the cyst has adhered to my bowel too.  I have done all the consents and had my Pre op assessment on Monday gone and he had thought the operation would be in the next two weeks.  I called the waiting list team who said they have got me pencilled in for the 21st September , another 5 weeks of waiting, and my consultant is now on holiday for 2 weeks.  This will take me to 4 months from being diagnosed with a complex cyst which may be malignant. Is this an acceptable/normal time to be waiting for surgery? 

Thanks
