Call from docs office, should I be concerned?

Question

I had a CT scan last week. Tonight I got a call from my docs office(around 7:30 tonight). it was a nurse making sure I had a follow up appointment. She got a memo from the doc asking her to make sure I had the appointment and she was going to schedule one if I didn't have it already. She couldn't tell me anything and said she didn't know what my CT results were. My appointment is in two weeks. I'm just wondering if I should be concerned? I've never had a nurse call to make sure I had a followup after a medical test. I had a CT of my head because I've had chronic headaches and facial tingling. if things were abnormal but not necessarily life threatning would they let me wait 2 weeks?

Answer 1

I think if it was serious, they wouldn't wait this long.  Try to think positive, cause you've got a while to wait.  So don't drive your self crazy with worry.  

All I can say is i hope everything is alright, and it's not serious at all.

I'm sorry you 're going through this.

Answer 3

relax,it is routine and normal for them to call.

Answer 4

i would think that if it was critical they would want you in sooner. I know it will be hard but try not to worry.G/L

Answer 5

  It is possible he saw something he didn't like and he wants to pursue it further, maybe a consult with another doctor, or another CAT scan.. That doesn't mean it is life threatening.! Relax ( if you can) and keep that appointment!

If it were something truly life threatening, the dr would have made the call himself. Be concerned, yes,. worried, no. Good luck.
