Well, I had my biopsy on August 29th. Was told prior with a sonogram, and always had with ultrasound? Find out they are both the same, but technically different, which I'm not going to try and figure out. After the pathologist took the sample, I think there were two nodes, she said my doctor will have the results the next day. I was usually told something on the spot from my prior 6 FNAB's elsewhere, like it is recurrent cancer, it's the same as before and interesting lol, I asked if it was "interesting?" The Pathologist kind of hesitated, saying she had to look at it further being reconstruction is difficult to tell, and my doctor will have the report the next day, which was Friday. Being a holiday weekend, I didn't inquire by telephone, not that I was told to do that, until Tuesday. The administrate aide said the nurse has to give me that info, and would call me back. No one called back after a reminder several hours later, so I made a trip to the hospital yesterday, Wednesday, and met with the Physician Assistant, who said all the results are not back yet from further testing, my ENT was not in, and hopefully when I see my radiation oncologist on Monday, the 9th, they will release the test results to him instead of me waiting until Thursday the 12th when I follow-up with the ENT, and will have some treatment plan in place, corrected herself, probably after my eyes popped open lol, and said or maybe it's not needed.
Before that I ran into the SLP and exchanged greetings, and asked me what I was there for? I said to pick up some biopsy test results, and she asked me if the doctor looked at then yet, and said I didn't know. She then said they are not going to give them to you like that, and hand you a piece of paper to figure out, but said I have no problem with that and can handle it.
I really like getting the results back before seeing the doctor for piece of mind, know what direction I'm going in, and if needed, able to ask the right questions, with a little research. So now I have to wait until Monday for the surprise results. Waiting is the worst.
