Does Anyone Know

[emmie]

how long it takes for results of a colonoscopy will take. I had one
done on saturday last and no idea what time line there is.

[Sqad]

It will depend upon the area that you are in, but 3 weeks would be a likely time, unless you chased them up.

[emmie]

thanks, am in the capital, this was done at UCH.
if i have not heard anything by friday might give them a call, its unnerving waiting for results.

[bednobs]

i doubt you'll hear in less than a week. Did they take biopsies?

[emmie]

yes, they took out four polyps.

[bednobs]

two weeks at least i would have thought then

[emmie]

not good...

[whatwhat]

Iv just had one done in Sussex uk and they said 6 weeks for biopsy results.. I got the results yesterday a day early

[jennyjoan]

I think if any thing was wrong Emmie - you would have heard quite quickly so no news is good news.

[Peter Pedant]

About six weeks

I was told immediately and given a date for hemi-colectomy

[Mamyalynne]

Emmie has had her results, mentioned here.
