Hello R and thanks for posting, 

GISTs and gastric (stomach) leiomyomas are rare so I doubt if anyone else will come along and post specifically about these conditions, but I think everyone appreciates how difficult it is to cope with uncertainty while waiting to have tests and hear the results.

I think the CT scan is just to take another look at your stomach from a different perspective to see if this type of  X-ray imaging sheds more light on whatever it is that has been spotted during the gastroscopy.

If you can, try and keep an open mind for now about what this is going on. Our general advice to people having investigations is not to spend too much time on line looking things up as this seldom provides much in the way of answers.  Try and think of things to help you to cope with the inevitable stress of not knowing and having to wait - distraction is usually a useful coping strategy. 

I hope you find out more soon.

Give us a call if you want to talk anything over. Our number is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and we are here weekdays from 9-5.

Best wishes, 

Julia
