Scan on Sunday - help put my mind at rest

Long story short: I had a bit of a scare a few weeks ago, and the upshot is my left leg doesn't work the way it should. Given that I have also developed a weakness in my left arm, my GP arranged for me to have a scan done to rule out... I'm not sure exactly.
My appointment has been arranged for Sunday at one of the mobile unit things and, to say I'm worried is putting it mildly.
I don't have anyone who can go with me or meet up with me after to distract me from worrying about what might show up.
I know that logically, as worrying as it is to me, it's just a deterioration of my current chronic condition (though it's rare for it to happen and almost unknown to happen suddenly), but I can't help worrying "what if?"
Please tell me I'm worrying over nothing.

I am sorry, of course you are worried. I can't tell you it will all be fine, but at least the scan is happening quickly. I hope you get results soon and that it's nothing serious/ can be treated effectively.

Thanks. I did think, having worked previously in the NHS, that it would take a while for the scan appointment to come through. So, how quickly it's happened is possibly what has me worried.

Of course! Please do update when you know more. Also, you might get more (useful) responses by posting in General Health. I'll be thinking of you.

My mum also had a short-notice scan on a Sunday. Everything was fine - and the timetabling was just a combination of luck and a good GP. Hope everything goes well, OP.
