Confused

I was told over 2 weeks ago I would hear back ref a CT scan.

But they tell me nothing.

They simply said the Dr has seen the results and it's now been sent to another clinician 

They won't give me any more information.

And told to wait.

I'm feeling sick with anxiety .

Is it normal to be sent to a different clinician if the Dr has already see the result .

The procedure is long and confusing .

  • Hello and thanks for your post

    I appreciate waiting to get your CT scan results is a very anxious time.

    It is not unusual for a doctor to get  his clinician or consultant to look at the scan results. This is quite common to do this and doesn't mean that anything is particularly wrong. 

    I hope you don't have to wait too much longer. Give us a ring if you would like to talk anything over. The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.

    Kind regards,

    Celene
