Breast biopsy

I recently had a breast biopsy and my follow up results appointment is back at the hospital on Monday. They said I may not be called back so does this mean I may have cancer? Do3s anyone have experience of being called back and was it immediately after they reviewed your results? The consultant met today and reviewed mine... I'm not worried I just hate this waiting game.

  • Hello, when I had my biopsy it took 2 weeks for the results to come back, I was told an appointment will come through either by post or telephone to come in and discuss the results. Surely you would need to go in to chat about the findings? Even if ( fingers crossed) it's benign? I suppose the protocol can vary depending what area your in...

    Ah....yes...the waiting, probably the worse part of all this....it screws the head up a wee bit....

    I hope everything turns out well....xx

  • It does mess with your head and thanks for your reply. I'm trying to read through the lines I guess. I hate the fact my results are back but I have to wait until my appointment on Monday to find out. I'm trying to second guess the outcome it's driving me insane... I just want to know. Many thanks again and hope you got negative results xx

  • Hi, sadly I was diagnosed with breast cancer just a few days before Christmas. And all the waiting In between tests, surgery, pathology etc is truly the worse bit. Funnily enough I didn't know how strong I was until now, it's defo changed me, I certainly don't sweat the small stuff anymore! And there has been so much support on here...

    if you get a chance let us know how you get on? Fingers crossed for you....xx

  • Oh gosh Marlyn I'm so sorry and just before Christmas too. I hope things are progressing in the right direction for you and yes, you are an incredibly strong woman and to offer your support so soon after your diagnosis I admire that strength. I'll definitely let you know on Monday my outcome. Thank you again and I have everything crossed for you too. Xx
