Phone results?

Hi all, I have a phone appointment on Monday to get the results of a PET / CT scan, 3 weeks after I had it done. Does anyone know if telephone is more likely to be okay news? I know no one can say for definite, but all of my other appointments have been face to face - my gut instinct feels like anything serious would be in person and also actioned sooner but I'm scared to take that as a given.

Thanks so much.

    Hi i had my ctsacn was 3 weeks ago and my bowel consultant is going to write to me about the results i am worried just like yourself before it was follow-up face to face with the consultant after BOTOX injections and steroid injection into my pelvic floor it's just all weird I thought it would be face to face

    All the best for your results - hopefully the move to not being face to face is a positive one. I really hope we wouldn't get bad news over the phone or by letter. 
     

    Have seen on my letter that the appointment is on the phone with the 'sub team' if anyone knows what this means that would be really appreciated. 

     

    Thanks again
