Waiting is driving me crazy

I had my biopsies last week and my CT scan yesterday and I am on tenterhooks waiting to hear if I have cancer.  I dont know when I am likely to hear but I'm really hoping it will be today. But it might not be until next Friday.  

How long is the usual wait?  Can they tell you ov er the phone or do they have to write to you?  I know they are discussing my treatment plan (if any) at a meeting next Thursday but if they already have the results will they let me know sooner?

I am on pins waiting.  Would it be ok to call them?  Ijust dont know what to do.

    If its of any help I had my ct scan on a Friday and they rang me on the following Friday to say that I had to go and have a transverginal scan it was the clinical nurse who rang me to say they found something on the ct see didn't go into detail and said a letter from ct department would be sent out in a months time when I got transferred to a different hospital they just said I was a high priority till I have this other scan so try not to worry about it for now thats what i am doing for now at least good luck anyway.
