Hi, Am new to these boards. Last Wednesday i went to the derm . I had 4 actinic keratoses frozen with the spray liquid nitrogen on my face. These are the first ones i've ever had.
They also did the punch type biopsy on two spots on my back. I was told it would take up to 3 weeks to get the biopsy results!! My family said that if the lab found something unfavorable, they would have called the derm office within a few days.
I'm wondering what opinions some of the readers may have regarding this.
I think about it all the time and wish i could just stop worrying about it.
thanks all! V from the Jersey shore

It can take quite a bit of time for a biopsy return, unfortunately, depending on the pathology lab and how busy they are. But, as Oleander states, you really do need to be your own advocate.
My doctor called me 2 days after taking the biopsy to inform me of my cancer. (And I sort of knew something was really, really wrong, because we kept playing "phone tag" all day, and the no one in her office would tell me what was up - she insisted on speaking to me directly.) The results of the other biopsies I learned the results within a week, and I ended up having to call. (all were negative)
I wouldn't wait, though. Give it a week, then call. If you make a pest of yourself, they'll want to get the results just to get rid of you, if nothing else!

I was diagnosed about 5 years ago with HIV and have lived taking ARV and thought of having Herbal medicine to cure this disease completely. I wouldn't be able to bear Vomiting and my tongue would go white because of these diseases called HIV/Aids. I learned to live with it but I have definitely prayed and had hands laid on me, My friends at work knew about my HIV Status so on a faithful day my friend Hannah talk to me about this great man called Dr Itua From west African because my friend Hannah is from West African too she came to acquire degree here in South Carolina, I accepted the challenge and contacted Dr Itua Herbal Center...drituaherbalcenter@gmail.com also chats on Whatsapp Number.+2348149277967. Then he delivered his Herbal medicine to me which was labeled as Dr Itua Herbal Medicine Cure For HIV/Aids, I took it as he instructed. After two weeks I went to the test and I was tested Negative.
