Hi Rachab 

it is difficult to say . It may be worth ringing the admin team or dermatology secretary to see if they have any further info  . I know follow ups can be for different things , they may indicate further treatment is needed or they may explain a benign result. 

I am waiting myself and was told results by letter , but I expect I would need to come in for further treatment possibly . 

Thankyou, i tried to get through to the secretary but was passed around to different numbers and gave up, i wasnt told how id recieve the results but im hoping i will get a letter with more information about the appointment. Wishing you good results x

Hi Rachab,

I am sorry to hear that you find yourself in this situation. It is impossible for any of us to say what this appointment is for. As they have said that they will monitor your toe and see you in 2-3 months, my guess is that this will be for your biopsy results.  The only way to be certain is to contact your consultant's secretary. Do you have a direct number for her? You will usually find this on any letter from your consultant.

There can be a longer wait for Dermatology biopsies to be relayed to patients, as this is usually a very bust department. It sounds as if yours may have come back sooner than expected. This happened to me too, but thankfully, it was good news. I hope that yours will be too! Please keep in touch and let us know how you get on. We are always here for you.

Kind regards,

Jolamine xx
