Hi everyone, I was wondering if any of you could help.

I’ll keep it brief. My girlfriend’s skin cancer results were supposed to come back within 3 weeks, but 5 weeks have already elapsed since the op. She’s had skin cancer before and she’s in her 20s so obviously both of us are really anxious to get the result. She is too anxious (if something, she closes down when I talk to her about it) to call up the anyone to find out what’s going on. I’ve stopped asking her to call anyone or pressing her to be proactive because she refuses and it it makes her so upset that it ends up being very counterproductive. That’s why i’m turning to you for help. 

What can we do to find out why it’s taking so much longer than they said it would? Is it likely that she’s somehow dropped off the system and she will never find out? Has this happened to you, and if so, what did you do that helped?

Thank you for taking your time to read this.
