Hi Louise,

Welcome to the forum.

Everything you've described sounds like good practice. They've identified that there's a problem with the ultrasound, but that doesn't give a clear enough picture for a diagnosis. A CT scan has much finer definition and will give the team a far better idea of what they are dealing with.

I've had several CT scans over recent years and have never received a hint of what the CT scan showed until I've had a face to face meeting with my consultant. Again, this is normal practice. 

I hope this helps set your expectations of what the process is likely to be. I think the early stages when you haven't had a firm diagnosis and are unsure what to expect are the scariest part of the whole experience. 

Best wishes

Dave
