Awaiting results consultant has referred to a specialist without telling me anything!

Hi, so I went to the GP 3 months ago with pain and a lump in my c section scar. I had an ultrasound and referral to gynae who ordered an MRI. I had the MRI 3 weeks ago, when I chased the results I was told that the gynae was going to a meeting to discuss my results with radiographers. His secretary rung me on Thursday and said he had been to the meeting and he wants a second opinion so has sent my films to some specialists in a major city hospital who will be discussing them in a meeting next week. They wouldn't tell me anything else! I just feel so ill and anxious that I have no idea what's wrong with me and have to wait at least another week, if not longer to find out what the problem is. I've convinced myself that I have something seriously wrong with me and am being kept in the dark, I can barely function at the moment for worry. I don't know why I'm posting really, just need an outlet x

Sorry not to have any advice but 🍰💐for your stress. Waiting for answers like that is horrendous.

That's very difficult and if I was upset like that I'd see my GP, they can hopefully explain a little bit more what might be causing them concern and hopefully make you feel a bit better Flowers
