Why do Doctors do this

Got a text this morning from my Doc who I am seeing on Tuesday, telling me one of my test have come up border line and is arranging an ECG for me. Why do they do this, just leave you hanging and worrying , why couldn't she have just told me Tues. now I don't know what the Score is and what is wrong. Must admit I have been having some really bad Palpatations and dizziness oh well now the waiting game.

Hi

I know it's easy to say, but try not to worry too much about your ECG. If your GP was seriously worried he/she would have had you in immediately for the ECG.

You will get the result straight away, whilst you are there, so you won't have to wait around for results.

Try your best to put it out of your mind until next week. At least you're having it done before Christmas so you will not have to wait around over the whole of the Christmas period.

Good luck. I hope that your results come back clear.

All the very best. Lu xx

Thanks Lu, don't normally bother me, but just thought it could have waited.xx

Some Dr's think they are keeping you informed and that's all it is. Try not to worry as Painfulpixie says had it been serious they would have brought you in straight away or sent you to the A&E

Good luck with your appointment on Tuesday

I’ve been waiting to hear if o have gallstones but in the meantime I had a blood test, the GP surgery txt me, phoned me & sent a letter to get in touch.

Of course it got me all riled up thinking all sorts. When I contacted them it was only to arrange another blood test in 3 weeks!! Lol
