Back in 2019 I had some post menopausal bleeding, referred under 2 week pathway, womb lining slightly thick, so had hysteroscopy and biopsy, biopsy was clear, hysteroscopy found 3 polyps, all removed under a general, results all good.

Fast forward to January this year and some more post menopausal bleeding...same procedure, thickened womb lining, little thicker than before, hysteroscopy and biopsy of womb lining, came back clear, more polyps found, they were sent off for biopsy and. 6 weeks later I'm still waiting for the results.

I was in touch with consultants Secretary last week who said results are back and with consultant for signature and plan..that got me worried as surely there would be no need for a plan if results were clear..

I emailed again today and she rang me to say consultant is on holiday (again) and would be back on Tuesday but my case had not yet been discussed at the MDT. As soon as she mentioned MDT my anxiety went sky high..you are surely only discussed at those meetings if you have cancer.

she said all cases are discussed but I am pretty sure she was just saying that so as not to freak me out - it didn't work, every link on Google with MDT says they discuss treatment plan etc for cancer cases.

I'm clutching at straws but does anybody know if non cancer cases are also discussed at MDT meetings? I know a lot of breast lump results are always discussed regardless of result but I can't find any information on other types of biopsy results.

6 weeks (next Friday) seems a very long time to wait if dealing with cancer, it's downright cruel keeping people waiting that long if their results are not good.
