Yes, i am in exactly the same position and really angry now about it. The doctor told me 2 weeks and its now 4 weeks, why on earth would you tell someone 2 week when they knew it would be longer. I phoned her secretary and she said they were running behind due to staff shortages but its the same doctor that took the biopsy that reviews the results so she must have known surely that it was taking longer.
Perhaps your doctor was right at the time that she gave you this information? She couldn't know of or plan for staff shortages. Unfortunately, unexpected delays can be caused by unexpected circumstances. In such circumstances, we just have to be patient.
I sincerely hope that you get good news when it does come through. Please keep in touch and let us know how you get on. We are always here for you.
I am also awaiting results! It will have been a 2 week wait as of Wednesday. My results are for endometrial cancer. Remaining optimistic but the wait is awful! Question, are results received via post, telephone or do they get in touch for an appointment in person? I guess i should have ask more questions during my biospy but i actually didn't know i was having one done at the time! My intial appointment was to discuss long term options to stop me bleeding!
A very warm welcome to our forum. I am sorry to hear that you are in this position too. This is always a worrying time and the wait feels endless. It is always a good idea to ask when the results will be back at the time of any scan or investigative procedure. Results can be via any of the methods you mention, although most surgeons prefer to give them in person.
I do hope that they come through soon and that it will be good news. Please keep in touch and let us know how you get on. We are always here for you.
