Awaiting CT Scan results

Hi,

i had an ‘urgent’ CT scan of entire turso at beginning of January (I think it was more because they can’t figure out what’s wrong with me, than looking for anything specific)

anyhoo, the consultant said to wait 2 weeks for the results, but if there’s nothing found he’ll ring me to let me know. Roll on 5 weeks and not heard anything, which I presume means nothing was found. I rang up the dr’s secretary again today, and she said she’d get the doctor to write to me urgently. 

Would the secretary have seen something, or could she just be saying urgently because she’s aware that I’ve had to wait for the results so trying to speed up response.

I’m just very frustrated at being in dark for so long (tho like I said the longer I wait the less likely there is anything wrong??)

  • I don't have the answer for you. I just want you to know I'm in the same position as you. After an emergency visit to my gp they rang an ambulance to get me to hospital. They were even preparing me for emergency surgancy the same night. 

    I had 2 ECG's and xrays which resulted normal. When the surgeon tapped on my ribs, the had to peel me off the ceiling.

    Then I had the CT scan, it's only been a week so I don't know the results. 

    In a few days they are putting the camera down my throat. 

     

    I'm with you on your journey and I'm here if you need to talk. 

    Anytime xx
