Hi All
I had the hystereectomy on Monday and came home Tuesday afternoon. I didn’t see the surgeon , a doctor i hadn’t met came and said she was asked to say all went as expected and once the nurse was happy i could go home. I was still a bit groggy so I didn’t ask how long before I get the pathology results. I asked the nurse and she said it varies but possible 2-4 weeks. How long did anyone in a similar situation wait? Thank you x
Hi Lancslass. good to hear it's all over and you're back home. Histology typically takes 2-4 weeks as the nurse said. It depends on staffing levels in the labs I suppose. (The target window date if you would need to have Brachytherapy is usually 6-8 weeks and I've never heard of someone waiting that long).
Put your feet up, take it easy, go for short walks if you feel up to it and try and put it out of your mind. Impossible to do, all we ever seem to wait for something or another.
Sending gentle hugs, Barb xx
