Still waiting … 4 weeks after referral

I just wanted a space to vent really - so apologies in advance. 

My urgent referral is still ongoing and not appointment thus far - the breast clinic is saying at least 5 weeks currently for their rapid referral. 

I am on week 4 of waiting and whilst I was able to set myself on an even kilter for the first few weeks, I am feeling increasingly anxious to not even have an appointment date. 

I have called sporadically to chase and to say that whilst I am on summer break from my job, I can take any appointment anytime - to no avail. 

I am just struggling with worry today.

  • Hi I know exactly how you are feeling. I was referred on 21/7 and still waiting for an appointment m. I called GP again yesterday and she provided the hospital number to have me chase them up. 
    Right now I’m waiting for a call back. Part of me is desperate to be seen but I am also terrified of what might be ahead.

    I really hope we both get appointments soon but the lovely ladies and support on here is great so keep posting!
