How do we get biopsy results?

Hello Ally52 

I am sorry to say it’s all down to your particular Health Authority. In the good old days you had a meeting to discuss the results. Now you get the results with a meeting at a later date.

Best wishes - Brian.

Hi Ally52 ,

I am with Brian (Millibob ), on this.

I had a meeting with a cancer nurse specialist to discuss the biopsy results.

There wasn't much discussion.

The standard answer to all questions was either "We don't do that here." or "We don't call it that".

This was in the Urology Clinic, followed by a meeting with a medical oncologist.

That was completely different.

Keep going with the research etc. until a plan is finally agreed.

I hope your results are great, and your worries alleviated.

Hi Ally52 from day one all of my appointments have pretty much been a quick phone call giving me a date and time to come in to the relevant department. No details of my treatment or results have ever been discussed over the phone. I've only had a letter re my forthcoming RT planning in March and two letters detailing my cancer diagnosis which came after I had already attended the actual appointments.

Best wishes 

Michael
