How long did you have to wait to receive diagnostic report following verbal confirmation?

Hello everyone

  • I'm asking exactly the same question! Diagnosed (positively) a week ago (NHS), and on the day they said they would start writing the report "as soon as we've done here" i.e. implying that afternoon. I'm anxious to get it in my hands a) to see it in black and white and b) see what else it says! I was thinking a week to a fortnight, but I could well be wrong.

  • I called the clinic again yesterday, thinking that my report should appear fairly swiftly now that the diagnostic process has completed and the remainder is essentially admin, but was told again "It could be a month or two". I'm not convinced that this is a fully-informed answer and is just something that the receptionist says to get people to wait more patiently. Very frustrating. I asked if I could have a brief email to confirm my diagnosis whilst I wait for the detailed report. I was told that my request would be considered, but I'm not holding my breath for it.
