That's a relief

Brilliant news kittyl! ? Waiting for results is always agonising!

WooHoo - great news

DH has known that I've been waiting but I haven't told the children as I didn't want to worry them as I know one in particular worries about one of us dying!!

My 'best' friend has enough health worries of her own.

And DH is at the hairdressers!

So, GN was the only place to be relieved.

Good news is welcome kitty ??

Great news kitty

Such good news, what a relief for you!

Well done that doc! So nice that he recognised that you would be waiting for the news.

Doctors and others - even we ourselves in everyday life - often don't realise what a huge effect a few words can have on someone's life.

Waiting for medical test results must be one of the worst though, especially when things get lost and the person involved doesn't get the results or even gets the wrong results and are consumed with worry for weeks on end.

Three cheers for that doctor. What a weight off your mind, kitty. Now you can get on with ordinary,everyday worries.

Wonderful news! Isn’t it great when the doctors realise there is a person at the other end of the procedure.

Such a relief........great news.

I can well understand how you will have been on "tenderhooks" over this period of waiting time kittylester............but hey!!! the news just could not be better..........I am cheering for you.

Very good news - now onwards and upwards!

Great news kitty you must be very relieved

Good news Kitty. You must be so relieved.

A glass or two to maybe celebrate tonight Kitty!

I'm reminded of a worrying time I had about 8 years ago. My late husband was in HDU in hospital at the time, very ill, and I'd had a mammogram just before he was admitted. Got the dreaded recall letter a week later, and travelled to the Breast clinic by taxi (it was quite a distance, and I was too worked up to drive myself). Had all the usual tests done including a core biopsy which wasn't the most pleasant of procedures. While it was being done, I confided in the lovely lady doctor about my husband, and my concerns about getting a positive diagnosis. I went straight to the hospital to visit him afterwards by bus, which was about an hour's travel. Supposed to go back a week later for the results.
Well, the following week I got a phone call from the lovely doctor to tell me the results were negative - it was a fibroadenoma (quite common), and she'd rung me as soon as she knew the results to put my mind at rest, with the turmoil I was already in. I was SO grateful for that phone call.

Phew!! indeed my friend. So glad that worry has been taken care of, but a rather more immediate response would have been even more welcome I'm sure.

A for you kitty and a celebratory glass of !!

That's great news kitty - indeed a great relief after all that worry!

Thank you everyone.

Logically, there was nothing much to worry about or, according to the receptionist, I would have had a phone call. Nevertheless.....

The delay was mostly down to me not the lovely gp as I have been so busy.

And, the extra good news is that my liver function is good so I could have

I’m very glad you have been given a clean bill of health, kitty. My DH had a CT scan three weeks ago. Docs appointment and fast track scan all within a week! Then no results. He rang the doctor on Tuesday and they hadn’t heard so he rang the hospital, to be told there was a question mark over his results, which rattled him somewhat. Yesterday while we were out, he got a phone call from the doctor to say she had had a letter to say there was nothing for him to worry about . Obviously relieved but I hope that the left hand knows what the right hand is doing.

That is good news kitty, a few kind words over the phone can help allay fears.
Two weeks ago I went for, what I thought was a routine, visit with surgeon and he gave me the results of a scan I had three months before. The one time that I went into the appointment on my own and was told I would need another operation. DH is usually my second pair of ears in case I don't take it all in. Thankfully my doctor, like yours, is kind and eager to explain and did not make me too anxious.

That’s good news kitty as waiting for results is always worrying ( am waiting for some too.)
Sounds as if you have a very nice GP.
