Has your dr. prescribed an antibiotic ointment or pills to deal with the ulceration? A week is way to long for any lab, doctor or pathologist to keep someone in suspense. Get on the phone and hound your primary doctor. If he/she hasn't received the lab results, it's ok to be persistent, call the clinic or office where your biopsy was done and demand to speak to the dr. in charge there. It's your life and you have a right to know.





I had to wait over Memorial Day weekend plus 2 extra days because my doctor isn't in the office on Tuesdays and Wednesday. It was hell, I couldn't sleep, or eat and couldn't function at work. I called and left her a voice message telling her it was ok to call me at work, on my cell phone or whereever and give me the news over the phone. I didn't want to wait for the staff to fit me in for an appointment and then have to wait an hour in the waiting room......





My dr. was fantastic and put me in touch immediately with a surgeon. A month after I was diagnosed I had surgery and started chemo a month later. October 28th will be my 2 year anniversary of my last chemo treatment.





I wish you luck!
Reply:Find a Dr. thet you can talk to and you will get answers from, an onocoligest. This isn't something to fool around with . Your result's should be in, press the Dr. to get you result's ASAP and do look for another Dr. Good luck.
Reply:I got my results the next day....call them over and over until you get an answer. Be proactive, it is so important.
Reply:Call the doctor or go there and tell them you want answers. I had a biopsy done on Monday and was told it takes 2-3 days. I had my result on Thursday. A week seems too much. It is nervewrecking as it is, don't let them make you wait.


My tumor was cancer and after the surgery they did more tests on the tumor . The very last test there took over 3 weeks to come back.
