Hi. I've been let down by radiology and gp surgery in that it look a long time after referral errors to finally get in for an ultrasound, whch I had last Thursday. This Tuesday there was a panel meeting to look at my sonogram, and they thought probable lymphoma. I chased the results all week and finally my GP saw me on Friday. I'm concerned that she didn't refer me to a specialist until this Friday, even though the decision was made on Tuesday -- I'm so cross, and feel incredibly let down.
My question is -- what happens next? What was your experience? When referred, did you see a specialist first, and then they ordered tests? How long did it take after referral for you to have a CT scan? And how long for the biopsy? How long did it take for people to get diagnosed after GP referral? Hearing about your experience would be really really appreciated. Thank you.
