Waiting for biopsy results

I hope I am not the only one. I am usually so calm and collected, but now I am anxious and wishing my time away. Nearly two months ago I had a routine mammogram. I was called back two weeks later, had a biopsy and was to return two weeks later. Three days before results I was called back, they had not taken enough samples and needed a second biopsy done. Given a date two weeks later for results. On day of results,I was phoned and told they were not ready,and they were waiting for a second opinion. That was nearly two weeks ago and I have heard nothing. I I am finding the waiting not knowing, driving me mad.

  • Welcome to the forum Ruby although I'm sorry for the reason that brings you here.

    I think you've described how the majority of our members have felt whilst waiting for their results so I have no doubt some of them will reply soon to offer their support and advice.

    There is some information online that I hope will help get you through this and fingers crossed you'll get some good news when your results finally come through.

    All the best,
