The Wait is so Upsetting

First I want to apologise for posting again as I realise a lot of people post about this issue but I am struggling so much.

I was referred on 2WW by my GP, seen very quickly for CT scan... But 3 weeks later, there is nothing. This wouldn't be as hard if it weren't for the fact no one answers when I call any of the numbers provided :sad: I realise people are busy... But I am so anxious and upset. It's easy to say no news is good news, but when I call my GP they say they have nothing, can see nothing on the system (which they have been able to see in the past when I have had hospital scans). So... I am left feeling like no one has even looked at my scans, which the GP requested as urgent.

:sad: I think the hospital must be very backed up right now, which I can appreciate and sympathise with, but it is so emotionally draining and hard not to fear the worst still.

  • Hi Emma,

    So sorry to hear you're still waiting - it's the most awful feeling isn't it?? Not knowing what's going on and feeling increasingly anxious as the days go by - can you call your GP and request they call you back as a matter of urgency to discuss your results? If you were on a 2WW then you should have had a response by now.

    I am waiting too, and I was going to contact them today and every day until I hear back from them as the sonographer told me my scan wasn't positive, but couldn't elaborate.

    Wishing you all the best and hope you hear soon.
