Breast care nurse/results

Good afternoon,

it's been a week since I had my breast biopsy and the clinic told me to give them a ring a week later if I had not received an appointment for my results.

I have called them today and my results are not back, however, the receptionist told me that I had been allocated a breast care nurse, does anyone know if this is just standard practice, is everyone allocated a breast care nurse?

Thankyou and have a lovely weekend

  • I'm sorry your results aren't back just yet K.s82 but fingers crossed it won't be too much longer until they come through and bring good news.

    Hopefully some of our members will be able to answer your question about being allocated a breast care nurse soon but if you'd like to ask our cancer nurses about this then do be sure to give them a call next week on 0808 800 4040. Their phone lines are open Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m.

    Kind regards,

  • Hi there, I can't answer that because people may have different experiences. However, when I was told to ring the breast care nurses, I just rang them. If you haven't already, I would suggest that you call her and say you were told she's your Breast Care Nurse and ask what can she tell you? Best of luck Mickey
