Was sent to A&E by my doctor over numbness in waist an legs had numerous tests an finally had an mri was told everything was clear and advised to have a lumbar puncture which i didnt want so was sent home 2 weeks later i recieved an appointment to go for an ultrasound when i attended the nurse doing the ultrasound asked me if i knew why i was there i told them no they then told me when i had the mri it showed i had a growth on my womb which i was very shocked at considering id been told the mri was clear, i then asked tem what happens now to which they replied u will get called back to clinic, its now been 3 weeks an have not heard anything back but have since seen my GP an have been told everything is fine an i have a cyst on my ovary an the person who done the scan should not have told me anything! For the best part of a week i was worried sick well when ur told u have a growth on ur womb u automatically think the worst i think policy's need to be changed and u should only be given diagnosis from a doctor not a nurse! But they didn't even tell me that nothing was wrong an they didn't find a growth only a simple cyst i think its awful that they did this god knows how many more people have been scared this way!
"very un happy"
