Breast biopsy - bad news given via telephone?

I just wondered if anyone who has been through this can give any advice. I had a breast biopsy and they said possible fibroadenoma but would do a biopsy. It's 1cm. I have been given a two week wait and a phone call appt for the results. My question is if there was cancer would they wait two weeks and would they tell you over the phone? I called the clinic and asked for an earlier appt and they only could do two hours early. I asked the question that does everyone have telephone calls for the results abs the receptionist said she just gets told who is to have a phone call and who she needs to arrange a phone call gave to face. So they do do face to face appts. Can anyone help? I going out of my mind.

  • I know exactly what you mean. I was in work and my mobile rang and it was a Leeds number, the hospital i went to was in Leeds. I literally threw the folder I was filing in on the floor and ran out of the office to take the call. It wasn't even the hospital, but thats how it gets you isnt it. Fingers crossed for you x
