Hi all

I'm Mandy, 51 from South Wales. I had a nasendoscopy tue and found out that I need a laryngeal biopsy.  The Dr said within 7 days but now I'm being told I have a pre op assessment on Feb 11th & I don't know when I'll have the biopsy. How long have people waited? 

Thank u all.

    Hey, 

    My dad got diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer and had his biopsy three weeks to the day afterwards. That was Wednesday and we go to the hospital on the 11th to talk about the results and a way forward. His biopsy was done there at the endoscopy unit, yours may be completely different but that's my experience so I really hope that helps you. I know this is a worrying time so take care.
