Hi Lindsey901 and thanks for your post

I am sorry to hear about your dad's situation and I can appreciate the concern you have.

Waiting for results is often a worrying time and a lot of people contact us to ask how long should they have to wait for them to come through.

We are hearing that some people unfortunately are waiting longer than 2 weeks with services being stretched.

You may like to raise concerns with the hospital  PALS (patient advice and liaison service) officer, who can look into this for your father or you could check with your GP again if they have results and ask if they can chase the hospital on your behalf.

I hope you know more soon.

Please get back to us if you need any more information or support.  You may find it helpful to talk things through with one of the nurses on our helpline.  The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.

Kind regards,

Tina
