Following high PSA levels I was referred for an MRI followed by biopsies for two areas of concern in the prostate all within two weeks. The consultant said I would receive a results appointment in 3 weeks, however I am now told that it will be 3 - 4 weeks before the histology is reported and then a clinic space for an appointment has to be found so it could be maybe 6 weeks or more. Is this length of time normal for NHS? I am told by my "Uro-Oncology Cancer Pathway Navigator" that there are unprecedented numbers of patients following the current prostate cancer campaign.
