@colthul Sorry to read you have waited so long. The wait for this test is so stressful!!!
The whole procedure is massive!! ALL the paperwork, working out if you were eligible, the insurance, the meeting with the councillor, the blood test & then the wait. My test was free as I had close family history.
I had my genetic test done on 30th Jan 2018 & by 21st feb, I was booked in for my first rad treatment so I would have got my results just before then. My test results were "rushed through" as my rad onc was waiting on the results so he could plan whether to go ahead with my treatment.
Covid has been blamed for many things being slowed so it wouldnt surprise me if it was to be blamed for your long wait. This must be killing you as i remember the wait for this result being very hard for me as the result may have effected may treatment plan/surgery moving forward. Love & strength. xx
