Bosniak 2f kidney cyst

Hello, i have a bosniak cyst on my right kidney.

The last ultrasound scan seemed to show that it had grown in the last year ( I've had it scanned yearly since it was found 5 years ago) it now measures 6 centimetres by 6 centimetres. 

I had a ct scan in November to check it out, it has several partitions. 

I rang the hospital today to ask about the results, and was told they have the results, but my specialist has not looked at them yet. He will be back next Wednesday and will review them then, and will write to me.

Am I right in thinking that there won't be anything to worry about, as I'm sure that if anything bad was found I would of had results before now?

Many thanks Alison
