Who to ask when neither your doctor or hospital consultant ?!


Question: Who to ask when neither your doctor or hospital consultant !?
can tell you how long you can expect to wait for test results for a CT scan!? ARI no one knows there and neither does my GP!. I cannot believe how less they care either!.

My hubby had CT scan on his lungs over 5 weeks ago and still we have not had the results back!. And it's not the case that nothing is wrong we know he has a problem consultant needs to confirm his diagnosesWww@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Ask the secretary of the consultant!. If you don't have the number, just dial the normal reception number and ask them to put you through to the switchboard, and then ask for Mr X's secretary!. She might be able to give you a rough idea as she'll be used to dealing with all the paperwork surrounding such investigations!. If she doesn't know she can ask the consultant direct and get back to you!.

I understand the main part of the stress is just not knowing! They probably have a huge backlog!.!.!.!.as the NHS always seems to in just about every dept right now!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

CT scan results have to be read by a radiologist, see if you can contact the radiology department and speak directly to the radiologist that is working on your case!.
The results are available immediately after the test, you Just have to wait for someone to interpret them!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

the results should be available by now get in touch with the scanner reception and ask if the results have been passed to your g!.p!. or consultant!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
