Hi,

I had rib fractures some years ago, had a untreated haemorhorax, long story short, after developing asthma symptoms I had a CT scan 2009 that showed some pleural thickening.  It wasn't considered sinister, I had a CT scan in the USA in 2015 again the thickening was noted but not considered sinister. 
A couple of months back I developed right side chest ache at the back near the bottom of the rib cage. Went to the doctors and had a CT scan two weeks ago tomorrow, I have just received a letter to see the chest consultant who wanted the scan in another two weeks.

so in people's experience, if it was something sinister would it be reasonable to expect a faster turnaround ?

many thanks for any replies
