Colonoscopy

Hi, I had a endoscopy (all normal) and a colonoscopy this Sunday just gone in a mobile unit outside the hospital. I was a bit out of it so didn't ask any questions. The report they gave me said crohn's colitis with small aphthous ulcers on every section of my entire bowel. They took 20 biopsies and mentioned the ones in pot B were being sent off for urgent histology. Not sure what that means.

the next day I missed a call from the hospital whilst I was doing the school run. It's nearly 6pm Tuesday and they haven't called back so I'm hoping it was just a courtesy call to check I was ok. Did anyone else get a call the day after?

now worried I may have missed something important.

(although the fact no one has called today is frustrating)

also had a CT scan a week ago but told I wouldn't hear for 2weeks. 

Worried and restless.
