Hello and thanks for posting

Individual hospitals can vary in the way their patients receive their results. I presume the hospital was just informing your dad that the wait for his scan results could take up to 6 weeks,so that he doesn’t overly worry about the wait. But sometimes the results are ready within a couple of weeks.

I know it’s easier said than done but try not to worry too much until you both know more

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.

Best wishes,
