Hi there- this happened to me. I was recalled & given an appointment date when I was due to be on holiday.  I knew I could never enjoy the holiday with the uncertainty of the recall hanging over me so I rang numerous times every day in the hope of getting a cancellation & finally I got one.  Thankfully, my recall was due to a ‘spot’ on my right breast that wasn’t there on the mammogram 3 years before so it was flagged as a ‘change’ & prompted the recall.  It’s worth knowing that the majority of recalls don’t result in a cancer diagnosis (as mine didn’t) as the sensitive equipment can detect the slightest change.  The ‘not knowing’ is the worst bit so if you are able to somehow get an appointment before your holiday I would encourage you to try to do that.  My outcome allowed me to go away with complete peace of mind that all was ok & it was so worth those phone calls that got me the cancellation.  I wish you well & hope that your recall outcome is in line with the majority & is nothing to worry about.  Take care x

Thank for the reply .  I fly Monday and they don’t have any appointments sooner .  I’m sure it be fine but it’s just the anxiety of waiting .  My nephew said he knows me well as I lost my first husband to cancer when he was 35 I was 33 .  So he says he can understand my anxiety .  Obviously I’ve had other family members with the big C and they have survived it’s just the not knowing.  But I will go away try to put it at back of my mind.  Just off to buy some rescue remedy thanks for your reply and I hope my outcome will be the same

Thank you for reply .  I fly Monday and they Carnt see me before .  I thought about cancelling but if I do then it turns out to be nothing I will regret it .  Yes my anxiety is going to be through the roof but I get a tan and rest before my appointment
