Biopsy wait

Last reply: 02 July 2024 21:14

Hope anyone can help or reassure me please, I haven't been diagnosed with Cervical Cancer but had a Colposcopy and biopsy 4 weeks ago due to high grade changes in my cervix(didn't have a smear test in 10 years which I know is stupid on my my part) My mum and 1st cousin both died from Cervical Cancer,I'm in my late 40's & haven't slept since the biopsy.I rang the hospital today & there is no sign of my results & sick of my husband saying "no news is good news"..have any of you ladies been in the same position as in waiting 4 weeks or more for results.Thank you.

Hi FK

Sorry to hear that you are waiting so long for the results of a colposcopy and biopsy.

I had my annual mammogram in March and was waiting for about two months for my results. I was given the all clear in about May.

Wishing you the best of luck with your results when you get them.

Best wishes

Thank you Jenni53, l didn't realise that mammogram results also take a considerable amt of time to come back,thankfully you were given the all clear.
