Ct scan results

I had my CT scan of my pancreas 5 days ago and I've just received a appointment letter for the results for in May of it was bad news would I be told sooner? 

  • Hello.

    I've had lots of tests concerning my pancreas. 

    I remember after my ct scan I had to have a endoscopy. And then was test after test.

    But that doesn't mean you will. 

    I hope everything is good for you x

  • Hi,

    Have had bowel issues, Posive FIT.

    Had a C T scan of my Bowel. After 4 weeks I hadn't heard anything, so contacted my Consultants Secretary. She informed my they are " behind" with test results etc.

    2 days later, I received a phone call from the Endoscopy department informing me that I needed an Endoscopy because during the C T scan they couldn't see part of my Colon.

    Very concerned because the lady said I was high priority. Endoscopy due on the 20th April.

    Still not had a letter/ phone call from the Consultant. 
    Has anyone experienced this? 
    Thank you

  • Yes a few times.  Last year after my mrcp scan=6 weeks.

    And as recently as last month cervical biopsy =5 weeks I had to chase as was told 2-3.

    And its not always no news is good news anymore because of all the backlogs 

  • Hi 
    Thank you for the response, I've had a endoscopy last year before I was diagnosed with a pancreatic insufficiency this year, I was sent for a ct scan 2 weeks after my diagnosis and after my scan they scan technician said are protocol says you need a MRI scan so we have referred you for one so I'm so worried.

  • I totally understand... I was scared witless.. had 2 ct scans.

    A endoscopy. 

    A EUS.

    MRCP and another in June..

    I'm being monitored. 

    I'm dreading it I'm so claustrophobic 

    When things first started happening I wouldn't get out of bed.. I couldn't deal with anything. 

    Your not on your own at all. X

    If like me your claustrophobic then I advise a eye mask and something like diazapan to calm you
