So in June had an abnormal chest ray, in July had a follow up X-ray of the chest which showed worsening acelactasis amongst other things in the right lower lobe fron June, as a result of these chest rays been put on a 2 week wait for a CT scan. Got a phone call today from radiology, we need to get you booked in for a chest X-ray….er no consultant has requested a Ct scan. To then be told The radiologist has refused this. I was then asked if it was to be referred back, thinking this was for the radiologist to relook at. Rang the medical secretary who got onto them and they said even if consultant put the referral back it it would be declined stating I needed another X-ray first despite 2 abnormal ones over a short amount of time. They then told her it had been completely cancelled and would need another referral that I had refused it. Not the case at all. Well my consultant is on leave for 3 weeks. While I realise there could be other reasons for the changes in my lungs.it is the rate of progression which is concerning me. I have a significant history of cancer in the family. Mum currently has terminal lung cancer, her brother died at 50 from lung cancer, other brother from bowel cancer. Feeling broken at present, understandably worried and thinking I need to go private for my own piece of mind
