Awaiting Biopsy Results for procedure done on the 27 Nov

Hi forum members, 

Like many of us on this forum I am driving myself crazy waiting for my core needle biopsy results. 

I had my procedure on the 27 November - when I called on the 3 December they said the results were still not back.  They also told me that depending on the results i would either be referred to the MDT meeting which takes place every Friday, and would be called in for an appointment after that or then written to with I presume a benign result.

Friday has come and gone, I wasn't called and neither have i received anything in the post.

From Forum members experience - are your normally called straight after the MDT meeting for an appointment? Or is that set up as soon as your results come through? 

Any help would be appreciated.

    I had my biopsy done on 13th August and received a call from the hospital on the morning of 19th September asking to to go to the hospital that day, so waited just over a month.  

    I really think it varies area to area and how many referrals they have at that one time to process.  I know it is a dreadul time for you but please, please try to remain positive and focus on other things as you worrying or panicking at this stage won't change the outcome of the results and is not good for your well being.  I know it's easier to say than do, I'm going through the journey myself but trust me it really helps.
