My 23 yr old DD recently had admission to hospital with suspected meningitis which they treated her for but eventually diagnosed sceptacemia (sp). She had a relapse a week after discharge and was re-admitted and had another lumbar puncture and IV antibiotics.
The did a scan and noticed the lymph nodes in her groin are raised so she had a MRI last week.
Today she had a letter from the GP surgery asking her to make an appointment "at your convenience". She is now worried about what this means (so am I, but not showing it, obviously). I've said if they found something serious they'd have sent her the appointment, not asked to ring and make one (hideously deprived area of Kent, shortage of everything you can think of public service wise so it's possible she could ring every day for a week and not get an appointment).
Does this sound like a routine kind of letter or one of those 'keep it bland so as not to panic people (which is what she is thinking it is).
