Hi all. My mum has had a series of tests over the past week after 'changes' were observed on her most recent CT scan (still on the books for lung nodules after bladder cancer 5 years + ago) - PET scan last week, lung function test on Friday. 

Just had a call to say she has a phone consult on Friday, call was made by 'a secretary from the respiratory team' (according to my mum), she's no idea who will be present or even who it's with. She's been asked to have someone present at home for the call. 

Would they impart bad news over the phone? Would everything have gone through the MDT already (I know this team meat twice a week, pre-covid at least)? Is this another effect of covid - that understandably they'd rather fewer non-critical bodies in hospital at the moment?

Grasping for (positive) straws, so scared this is going to be bad news

Thanks x
