Hi everyone, looking for some reassurance that this is "normal"
9 days ago I had a breast biopsy and was just rung to be told that the sample was "insufficient" and I need to return in 6 weeks for further examination. The lady on the phone tried to reassure me by saying the cells that they did get are ok/must be ok and that the long wait to do another is to give my breast/the lump time to settle after the first one. Seeing as it didn't feel sore at all after it was done, I'm wondering if that really is the reason.
I don't really know what to think, all I can think right now is how on earth will I get through another 6 weeks not knowing? My husband who suffers badly with anxiety is in absolute bits and begging me to see if I can be seen privately. Would a private hospital see me any quicker or is this 7 week wait (as I had it done a week ago) standard practice??
Thank you in advance.
