Can the ultrasound technician tell me anything during the scan?

I am having an ultrasound of my neck to check my lymph nodes as some suspicious stuff has been going on with them- I thought I would have a follow up with my GP the week after to find out what was going on but as it turns out if there is anything that needs further investigation urgently I will just receive a phone call asking me to come in! Will I be able to get any indication of what's happening during the ultrasound? Even if it all looks okay? Or am I just going to have to hope this phone call never comes?

  • Hi eeli98, 

    I noticed you have some questions about your upcoming ultrasound so I just wanted to give you our cancer nurses telephone number as I think they may be able to help.

    They're available on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m -5p.m and will do all they can to give you the answers you are seeking at this time.

    Hopefully some of our members will share their experiences with you soon as well but in the meantime, we're thinking of you eeli98 and will have our fingers crossed for a good outcome.

    Kind regards,
