Cervical biopsy/womb biopsy

Hi I'm just wondering how soon you got your biopsy results back if you was diagnosed with cancer ? I had My cervical biopsy taken 2 weeks ago yesterday, after ringing the doctors to see if results was back she said there back with the colopscal clinic and to ring the Dr's secretary, she told Me they came back late yesterday and the Dr hasn't went through them yet, she said to ring bCk Tuesday/Wednesday cause a letter will of been typed up by then 

  • Hello McGann

    I'm sorry to hear that you've recently needed a biopsy and that you're now waiting for your results. I know that for many people this period of waiting and uncertainty can be difficult and it's understandable that you may be feeling anxious. 

    It really is difficult to say how long people wait for results if they're then diagnosed with cancer. There are so many different factors to take into consideration that waiting times from biopsy to results/diagnosis can vary quite a lot.  

    Hopefully, when you speak with the secretary next week someone will be able to give you some firm answers and reassurance about any next steps. 

    Do let us know how you get on. 

    Best wishes,
