i had thyroid lobectomy almost 5 weeks ago as my ultrasound showed suspicious for papillary cancer.  i am still awaiting results.  Is this normal to be waiting this long.  I dont have my follow up appointment for another 2 weeks and the waiting is driving me crazy.  Could my gp give me the results once they are sent to her, which as yet she has not received either.
Hi, dairy have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You have suspicions of papillary carcinoma of thyroid. Your thyroid lobectomy has been sent for histopathological examination.  Histopathological examination take 5 to 7 days for confirmatory diagnosis.  So you should consult your pathologist and ask for the report. Then you should take treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Wish you a very good health.
