Biopsy Results Appointment Brought Forward

Hello Community, 

I noticed a change in my breast and something showed up on the ultrasound. A biopsy was taken of the area. 

Because of my age 35 and family history I also had a mammogram which showed another area in the same breast. A biopsy was taken there also. 

I was given an appointment for the 24th November 2021. The hospital called today and said I was being discussed on Monday and can I come in on the 17th November 2021. She said that the first appointment was an temporary appointment and sometimes they change. 

I have been calm up until this point, I've convinced myself that the appointment has been bought forward because something is wrong. 

Has anyone had any experience of something simmilar happening. 

  • Hello Micalo and a warm welcome to Cancer Chat, 

    I just wanted to reassure you that there can be so many different reasons why an appointment can be brought forward. Sometimes there can be cancellations so it doesn't necessarily mean something is wrong. It just means you can be seen sooner which is a good thing in itself and means you won't need to wait as long. 

    I hope that you will hear from others here to whom this has happened before and that they will share their experience with you. 

    I just wanted to wish you the very best of luck for your appointment on the 17th. I am keeping everything tightly crossed for you!

    Best wishes,
