Hi Kirsty, 

I was referred on the 13th July but had to wait until 6th August, I got the appointment through the post but that was about 10 days later. I think it totally depends on where you live as I asked the same question on here and people had been seen much quicker. I am in the North East.

The wait is horrendous isn't it, I'm now waiting for biopsy results which are going to be given 20 days after biopsy.

Again biopsy results have been much quicker for other people on here too. 

Hope you get your appointment soon and all turns out well for you xx

Hi Kirsty,

It is normal to be given an urgent appointment for the breast clinic and, to be seen within 2 weeks from your referral date and, to get your results within 1-2 weeks, but this can vary in different parts of the country. Again, how you get your appointment can vary. Most appointments tend to be by post, but sometimes they can be given by phone, especially if they are offering a cancellation. Don't worry about your missed appointment this morning. I'm sure that they will phone you again if they didn't get through.

Try to keep yourself busy as this should help to pass the time.

Please let us know how you get on. We are always here for you.

I hope that nothing untoward is found.

Kind regards,

Jolamine xx

Thanks for the replies, I just got my appointment for 28th so looks like it'll be a waiting game for me to :( 

Hope everything goes well for you Pipin x
