  • Hello jpjpjp77

    I'm sorry to hear that you've been dealing with some health problems that have resulted in you needing an MRI. 

    It's easy to try and interpret what it may mean when test results come back more quickly than expected. We know that this period of waiting for results can be really difficult and it's understandable that you're feeling anxious. 

    Sometimes it can help to talk to someone and if you'd like to have a chat with one of our nurses you could call them on 0808 800 4040 (Monday to Friday 9 am to 5 pm). I'm sure they will try to offer you some support and reassurance ahead of your results appointment next week. 

    Do let us know how you get on. 

    Best wishes, 
    Jenn
