MCRP scan/bile duct cancer

Hi, I've never posted before on a forum like this - I'm from Ireland and we don't really have anything like this or I couldn't find any forum like this.  

 

I recently was in hospital due to bad gastroenteritis/ bad flare up of colitis/proctitis  I seem to be getting random stomach bugs a lot which is making me very worried - I went to A&E myself has I felt this was a bit more then a bug, anyway I was admitted and had to stay for 3 nights - while doing a CT scan (initially thought was gallstones) they said I had enlarged or coated bile ducts - she said she didint seem worried - firstly because I had an infection at the time and also cause of my age , (25yr female) she said to follow up though I will be sent for a MCRP to check, she said my bloods and liver tests all looked normal but they were still dilated - has anybody been in a similar suituation? I'm worried I now have something wrong with my Bile ducts and can't stop worrying it's the  C word, the scan isint until February 2021!!! 
 

Thank you :happy:

    I'm sorry to hear that you've been dealing with some ongoing health problems recently. It's understandable that you're feeling concerned about the points that were picked up during your recent hospital admission. 

    I'd suggest getting in touch with your GP who should have had notification of your admission and what happened. They may be able to tell you what urgency the MRCP was requested and hopefully offer you some further reassurance about things. 

    I hope that things settle and improve for you soon. 

    Best wishes,
