Pathology report

Hi @melzzs ...your surgeon's office should be able to just email you a pdf copy.

If you aren't up to speaking with the office, maybe ask your Breast Care Nurse to do it on your behalf xx

I hope your recovery is going well xx

take care & don't do too much.

Hi,Arpie
I called the breast nurse,today who spoke to the surgeon and she then cslled me back, they don't give it to patients (me) it only gets sent off to my docter who referred me,so they wouldn't send it to me
  I am booked to see my GP next Tuesday so hopefully I will get a copy then
Thankyou🤗

I find if I sit down for a while I start feeling better pain not bad ,hoping to be back at work next Monday for a 3 hr shift in a nursing home, 
Thanks Arpie

OK ... excellent - yep, once you see your GP (who should tell you what is in your surgeon's report too) then THEY should give you a printed copy of the Pathology Report (and you may as well ask for a printed copy of the Surgeon's report too.)

Re going back to work - just be VERY CAREFUL about NO LIFTING, PUSHING OR PULLING heavy things (or people!). You don't want to cause any damage.  It takes a while for the internal stuff to 'heal' ..... you should only be on light duties for a while. ;) 

take care & make haste SLOWLY. ;) 

OK I will be careful thankyou 🤗🙃😀

Just as a note - you can see some pathology and other reports on My Health Record if you've enrolled for that service. Things like blood test results are there too, but generally aren't accessible for at least 7 days - I'm guessing it stops people self-diagnosing and freaking out before they see their GP, but I feel like those records are your data and should be accessible regardless.

Hope you feel better soon @melzzs!!!

That's great thanks byo_boy

Hi @melzzs
I asked for a copy of my pathology report from oncologist.
She looked surprised but gave it to me - I got the idea from this forum.
IIf you can get it from your GP well and good but you definately are entitled to it .

Hi,I I have an appointment with a radiologist oncologist on the 7th I will try again then,it really makes it hard to have to go to the doctor just to get the pathology report,I haven't an income coming atm so its hard money wise,I will need my wound under my arm looked at as well 
Thanks for the advice 🙂

Hi @melzzs
I have never received any pathology reports from my oncologist, only from my GP. None of my cancer-related pathology reports are available on My Health Record, so I have to go through my GP. I have all the copies.
