Biopsy results

I’ve had a biopsy to remove a mole and was told my GP would let me know the results in 4/5 weeks. I receive a letter from the hospital five days after my biopsy to say that I am due a review appointment in a month. I was meant to have the review appointment in two months. When I rang to find out why my appointment had been changed, I was informed that the consultant had asked for it to be moved up to a sooner date to recieve my biopsy results. Now I am worried it could be bad news, anyone ever go through something similar? Any advice would be amazing. I know I shouldn’t focus on a negative outlook but I’m so worried.
Hi
I am sorry you have this worry at the moment. Waiting for results is a very anxious time. If you would find it helpful to speak to a cancer nurse about your concerns on our support line, you can do so by phoning 1800 200 700. We are here Mon-Fri 9-5pm.
Kind regards
Cancer nurse
