Hi @Nattyv63,
Oh yes AllyJay, the squeaky wheel gets the oil! Sorry this is happening to you Nattyv63- the waiting is vey stressful. A core biopsy should be done fairly soon after mammogram bc diagnosis.I think I waited about a week. My surgery was then booked in 2wks later(the first time 2003) and 3wks later( 2nd time in 2010). I was private hosp for the first time and public for the next time but had my private surgeon.Unfortunately things can slow down abit at this time of year.I personally think your biopsy wait is a tad long as it means your surgery could be fobbed off till the new year?You should get biopsy results within a few days and see your surgeon. Perhaps take someone with you and don’t allow your surgery to be delayed- have a meltdown if you have to! You seem happy with your surgeon and the hospital is convenient so stick with it- you’ve come this far.Big hug xx
