Thank you for your reply -I really appreciate you taking the time.  I think it's just our human nature to think the worst and over think everything. 
 

I am trying to stay positive and my thoughts swing either way about every 10 mins. One minute I'm saying 'pull yourself together and get something done'  and the next minute having a silent cry - the waiting is awful. 
 

Fingers Crossed for your results too and thank you again

Hello

It's the hardest thing the waiting but I was promised biopsy results over the phone but all I had was an appointment the16th day after biopsy ( I was told 7/10 days after I'd get the results even with COV I'd 19 backlog) anyway I have rung the PALS ( patient liaison team ) as I want the results before hand so I know what to ask and what to expect at the appointment and I do beleive that EVERYONE should know the results before any follow up appointment , I also feel the system needs to change as there is enough worrying going on in this world as it is and it cannot be good for anyone's mental well being 

Hi, 

I actually feel very lucky with the service I've had so far. I had my routine mammogram at 9:45 on Thursday and was back in my car by 11am having had ultrasound, needle to check for cyst, 3 biopsies taken, metal clip put in place, and another checking mammogram. I was also handed an appointment for my results which is this Thursday. So 7 days is not too bad having read other people's experience. It is frustrating though as I know my results will be in as there is a 'meeting' today with consultants etc. I just want to know so at least I know what I'm dealing with. 
 

I hope you get some answers soon xxx

Thank you xxxx

Thank you for that but my appointment is 23rd August so that's almost 6 weeks  to be made to wait , no one should promise anyone the results if that's not the case ! Thing is breast cancer runs in my family but I squashed my left breast in the door then found the bra wire stuck in another part after half an hour hence a bruise formed followed by a tiny lump and it check my breasts every four weeks and i know it wasn't there end of April so I was convinced it was the injury caused it , my Gp was great and said I must ring PALS hence Saturday all I received was my appt and a letter from breast cancer wales for another mam gram !!!! Thing is I went with my sister for bracs genetic discussion four years ago as she had grade 0 insti found and they said it was not in our family so if I do find I have it I will certainly be ringing them but I have told the consultants secretary I won't be attending ANY appt until I have the results which were promised - 

I hope everything works out for you xx

I'm really sorry that you are going through this - you shouldn't have to fight so hard at what is already a difficult time. That is a really long time to wait I can completely understand how you are feeling - it's hell on earth. I really you get some answers soon xx 

Exactly, and the system needs to change urgently and one day I hope I can help make that change as way too many people are left in limbo in this waiting game, ( which,  is the only way I can see that this  is )  as far as I'm concerned , and being an ex Nhs Hca and Marie curie end of life carer for years I am appalled and disappointed at these long waiting times snd broken promises and stress can cause so many changes in the body as we know
