Hi all
LH's biopsy has been put back from 15th July to 27th July. I know it's not long really but it has really annoyed/upset me . All this waiting is torture!
just wanted to vent!
thanks for listening
Hello Dogs4me
You could always give your hospital urology department a call and let them know you are available to come in at short notice to cover any cancellations - you would be surprised how many they get!

I think he feels he needs time to prepare for it (mentally I presume) so is worried he will get a call asking him to go in at a moments notice and that scares him. It is not how I would deal with it but I will have to respect that is the way he feels.
Hello Dogs4me
I am like you - let's find out what's going on and get it over with.
Biopsy 27 July, results to MDT meeting say 11 August so it's going to be late August at this rate before you get a diagnosis and treatment plan.
Best wishes - Brian.

Hello Dogs4me
One thing Urology/Oncology are good at is working round holidays as they appreciate with cancer any break is good for the mind and body. If any meetings come up that week just let them know you have a pre-booked holiday.
I hope you both enjoy it. .
Best wishes - Brian.
