Mediastinal Bcell
A MyLymphomaTeam Member asked a question šŸ’­

Hi all,
My husband is in the diagnostic phase of his diagnosis. He has a 12 cm mediastinal mass with no lesions elsewhere (according to CT). Waiting for the results from the incisional biopsy. It seems like there is no urgency in getting biopsy results. We go to a big university hospital and trust they know what they are doing. How long between pathology results come in should we expect to start treatment?

Hello! I'm not sure there is a set in stone answer for this. I waited a week for my results. My daughter the same. And I young man we know has waited the same time. If you have waited longer than that. I would be calling and asking for answers. One thing I have learned personally is you have to be your own advocate in anything medical. Best of everything to your love and you.

Excellent point, Pamela. Nobody cares about you more than you do. Learn as much as you can, and ask all the questions you need to ask. If your hospital uses an Internet portal to communicate test results, etc, sign up. It's very helpful to see it all yourself in your own time.
