The one through NHS in June was back with the consultant very quickly. Think it was a Friday heard from secretary Tuesday and saw him on the Thursday.

Privately it took three working days for report to come through.

It’s going to depend on consultant and urgency.

Many thanks for your response. I’ve been this morning - one of the worst experiences ever - I passed out and threw up from the cannula before I even had the MRI 😜🙄 then the weight of the camera was making pain worse and then on leaving the hospital to pay my parking ticket got soaked in an ‘apocalyptic’ rain storm 🤣🤣

At least it’s out the way 😀. Passing out not so good, do you know what caused it for anything in the future?

I’d asked about injection beforehand, told none and then they wanted to do buscopan. Tried without and it was ok for info.

Let us know how the results go.

Mine took about 3 weeks as it was done before Christmas time. I was then called into the GP surgery to discuss the results x

Mine took a week. I got them from the hospital results phone line. Much longer wait to discuss them/what it means for treatment with a specialist though x
