We think Kidney cancer is the primary source

Hi - sorry to read your story.  

I re-read it slowly, to derive my expected timescales.  She was referred to urology on 13th May so I would expect her to see urology within 6 weeks which would be the end of June.  She was seen within the week so this is OK.  Time to book at biopsy would be "expected" within 6 weeks.  Speedy would be 2 weeks in my experience of NHS and that's what you got. 

I think the perception here is that she's been in pain since April so it feels much longer.  But the wait time can only be measured from the time urology became aware which is much later.  I know it's hard, the waiting, and it goes on and on,  The uncertainty ramps up.  But it doesn't last forever and the biopsy is the start of the answers.  I had appts for biopsy and onco on the same day in different hospitals.  The biopsy took preference and I was talking to onco a week later with the results of the biopsy.  I really think you are close to answers you so desperately seek, now.  

I agree with that, Mmum. Two weeks between stages of the process, seems to be the shorter side of the norm. It does sound like Jay's mum is close to the treatment plan being devised. 

A week or two can feel like a month or several, when you are in pain. Also when there is something 'not right' and you can't get the answer straight away, it causes more anxiety and that also stretches out the perception of time.

Yes we've been told, we should expect a appointment for a biopsy in the next 2 weeks, & then with a oncology within a week after that, she is also getting referred to a different hospital ( on reading where she is being sent, I believe it's one of the leading cancer hospital in the country).
