Hi Doves, 

Thank you for your post on Ask a Nurse. 

The length of time waiting for biopsy results can differ between hospitals and depending on what tests they may be running. You could link in with your Clinical Nurse Specialist or your team in the Mercy Hospital to see if they have any updates. 

If you would like to speak with one of our nurses in more detail, please contact the Support Lin on 1800 200 700, Monday – Friday, 9am – 5pm. 

Kind regards,

Cancer Nurse
