Hi Julie,
I was wondering, do you have a past history of cancer? I'm sorry I can't answer your question but I would wait and see what the bone scan report says. Why were you having the xrays to begin with? I'm sorry if you have posted your history elsewhere and I missed it. When is your appt?
Waiting is definitely the hardest part with anything. Hang in there though and let us know what you find out.
Hugggggssss,
Linda :wave:

Hi Julie,
Hi there. From my past experience and being in the medical profession myself I do find most radiologist do call doctors when they see something abnormal on tests they do and recommendations. Then it puts it in your primary care doc that ordered the testing to call you to come in or discusses it with you over the phone. I know its stupid so I won't even try and tell you to try to relax...its impossible at times like this. Another thing you could do is call your doc's office and see if they've gotten the results yet and if so request that the doc call you to discuss the results because you are dealing with too much anxiety in the wait. Or move your appt up sooner. I would let them know you have a family history of cancered and you are very concerned about your results.
I will say a prayer for you and wish you the best. Please let me know what you find out. Take care.
Huggggsss & prayers,
Linda
