Had an MRI a few weeks back and just phoned for results. Secretary said they couldn't give out results over the phone, which I understand. I said "so is there no information you can give me?" and she said "hold on, I'll just have a look at them". She then came back and said "yes, as I said, there's no info I can give you over the phone".
Now, in my head, this means that she thought she'd have a quick look and if it was all ok she'd have come back to me and said "don't worry, everything's fine but we have to wait for the doctor to sign off on it" or something. But instead she looked at them and saw that there was a Big Scary Thing and she didn't want to tell me over the phone so she went back to her "I can't tell you anything" line.
Am I being completely mad to think that?! Otherwise why would she say she can't tell me, then have a look anyway, then repeat that she can't tell me? Surely she wouldn't have even looked at the results...
