I had a neck ultrasound this morning due to some swollen lymph nodes. Following the scan, the sonographer refused to tell me the results. I asked if she saw anything abnormal and also asked if I needed to worry, but to both questions she responded that she needed to review the images and write a report which she would send to the GP and I would then get the results from my GP.
I have had two ultrasounds in the past (abdominal) and both were normal (fortunately). At these ultrasounds, I was told they were normal immediately after the scan by the sonographer.
The sonographers refusal to tell me whether she saw anything abnormal and respond when I asked if I needed to worry has me very, VERY scared.
Is it normal not to receive neck ultrasound results immediately after the test? Please let me know if this has happened to you.
