Hi Vix,

Biopsy results take as long for good news as they do for bad or indeterminate news. 

On the NHS website it says, “The length of time it takes to receive biopsy results is primarily determined by the specific type of biopsy, the complexity of the sample, and the processing capabilities of the laboratory.”

Most of us feel that wailing for results is the worst bit.

Good luck!
Dave

Hi Dave

Thanks for your reply - I think deep down I knew (I actually work in NHS) but just kinda hoped that I was correct. 

I’ve never had to have a biopsy, so this waiting is making me anxious and I know that’s a pretty normal feeling. Very different when we’re the patient right? 
I probably would’ve pushed it to the back of my mind but I’m still suffering, and reading the words “dysplasia screening” “nodulars” and that the only thing showing normal on my report was my Oesophagus (which is where I thought I had the issues) I honestly thought they were going to tell me I had an Ulcer.. I have small erosions in the pre plyoric area also, all these big fancy words haha. 

I know all I can do is wait, hopefully it’s consistent with Gastritis as that’s also mentioned in the report. 

I appreciate your response. Thank you :)
