Hi Everyone,
On May 3rd I had a biopsy of my right breast. The doctor thought I had a fibroadenoma but 'to cover all bases' wanted to do a biopsy. I have an appointment on May 16th for results.
In the UK we have a system called 'Patients Know Best' attached to your NHS record where the hospital adds test results and they send the patient an email when it has been updated.
Today I got an email saying it had been updated. I looked at it and it said 'Histology dept', the name of the person who entered the information, but the reult was 'not available until June 24th'.
I am now having a major meltdown. I am scared that the result is not there as they want to give the doctor time to tell me in person that I have breast C. I also received a text to remind me of my appointment next week.
I am so terrified. I can't eat, I keep crying, I just don't know how I can manage until next week. I feel like I'm staring down the barrel of a gun.
Please, can anyone relate? Has anyone had any experience of this with UK results?
Thank you x
