Hi
I was wondering if anyone could help with my query regarding biopsy results? I had a high grade changes at my last smear, had colposcopy and biopsy almost 3 weeks ago and they said they removed the affected cells at that time and I would receive my results in the post in about 2-3 weeks.
This morning I received a letter from my GP saying they'd tried to contact me several times (must have wrong number) and to phone the surgery. I'm panicking because I thought I would just get the all clear in the post. I've been worried as it is as I hadn't had a smear for 17 years prior to this.
How do people usually get results? This has totally thrown me and it's a holiday weekend so I'm not going to find out until Tuesday now.
On one hand I'm thinking it must be bad as they've been trying to phone instead of just the usual results in the post. On the other I'm thinking if the results went to the hospital first and it was bad the gynaecologist would have phoned? And I know they have the right number.
Sorry for waffling, I'm just hoping someone can shed some light as to whether this is likely good or bad news? I'm in Scotland, not sure if it's the same process throughout the UK.
