  • Hello Happy-days, 

    What a stressful time it must be for you! Waiting for this biopsy appointment and then again for your results can understandably make you feel very anxious especially if you are on the cancer pathway or heard the word 'cancer' being mentioned to you before. However, try not to anticipate the worst at this stage as there are other conditions it could be other than cancer and they won't be able to tell you for sure what it is until they have done the biopsies. So it's all a waiting game for now and it's a game many of our members have sadly had to play before, and not a fun game for sure... I hope that you will hear from other members of our community who have waited for similar biopsies before and that they will be along shortly to share their experience with you. If you can - and it's by no means easy - try and resist the urge to look things up on Google and there are helpful tips on this page to help you cope while waiting for important news.  

    Keeping everything crossed for you that it all turns out to be nothing of concern - do keep us updated if you get a chance when you find out more. 

    Best wishes,
