Hi,

I had an oral biopsy before Xmas and got my results via the follow up appointment a month later, the call for it came 3 weeks after the biopsy. I was extremely nervous at the biopsy apt  but as I was leaving the nurse did say to me the longer it take to call you back the better as if it was anything serious they'd call for you quicker, obviously don't know how true this is but it might be a good sign for you x

I thought i would comment i too are waiting for mouth biopsies results, had mine done on 20.01.22 and received a appt letter this morning for two weeks time, i was thinking that's great, can't be anything serious or they would have got me in sooner but after reading the above thread, i am not so confident now. The wait has been awful but in a way i would rather a little wait while they run the checks than a false result. i suppose sometimes it just takes time. the hospital i am with was fanastic at getting me in quick, they were sent the referral at 3.45pm and i had a call the next day to go in the day after. Brilliant service. I wish every one of you good luck and keeping fingers crossed for you all

Two weeks is about average, I’ve had lots of biopsies on things like lymph nodes and it’s usually about two weeks. I think my oral one was a bit longer because it was over Xmas and it’s a very busy clinic with long waiting times, try not to worry. 

Good luck with everything 

Thank you Mrs CMC, i appreciate the response. It's very difficult to talk about it, we have my Husbands Mum that lives with us so we don't talk about it, as she only worries herself silly and makes herself ill. i have had my patches and problems with burning sensation on eating for over 6 months and kept ignoring it and didn't tell anyone until i got the appt with the maxillofacial team. I didn't want to worry anyone.
