    I'm sorry to hear that you're waiting for an appointment with the specialist following your recent biopsy. There could be many reasons that they have asked you to attend a face-to-face appointment so please try not to read too much into this nor worry about the "what ifs". 

    Hopefully, when you see the Consultant they will be able to answer all your questions and give you some reassurance. In the meantime, if you'd like to chat things through with one of our nurses you're welcome to call them on 0808 800 4040, Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm. 

    Do let us know how you get on. 

    Best wishes,
