Mammogram recall. Breast biopsy in Coventry.. how long for results.

My first mammogram, got recalled. They did a biopsy, I think they said results via appointment between 4-8 weeks. I’m not sure if I dreamed the 8 weeks. I was in shock. Anyone else had a recall biop end of July / beginning of August? If yes when are you expecting your results? Plus what part of the country are you in? Just trying to work out when to expect results? I am fine. Keeping busy, plu the knowledge that first scans don’t have anything to compare, so my abnormal may be my normal.

  • Hi, I recently had a recall following my first routine mammogram since being discharged after 5 years of treatment for bc (being surgery, annual mammograms and u/s and Tamoxifen).  Had biopsies done for an area of dcis and going back in 2 weeks for results.  4-8 weeks sounds quite a long wait for the results in my opinion.  When I was first diagnosed with bc 7 years ago my biopsy results were available after 2 weeks.  I would perhaps query that timeframe with your healthcare team.  Have they given you a folliow up appointment? I’m located in Surrey so maybe the dinings are different in my area.  Hope you don’t have to wait too long - wait for results is agonising x
