went for my mri scan on my spine last week and didn't think much about it after that. last evening, i got 4 missed calls from the hospital. called back but the staff had knocked off. this morning the hospital called again. when i answered, the nurse went "oh hi mr sim, we got your mri results and the doctor needs to see you urgently. will you be able to come down on 4 jan? once i firm the time, i will call you again"...
i said yes, and she hung up... less than 5 min later, she returned the call, "oh hi again, mr sim, i have firmed the time at 3.15pm, but because yours is an urgent case and inserted amongst all the pre-fixed appointments. so you must be prepared to wait ok? could possibly be up to an hour or two..."
i said ok, we hung up and it got me thinking - huh? urgent case? wtf! what so urgent? is it becos the findings is bad and it is urgent or is it becos the mri was brought forward and thus the insertion is deemed urgent? so i asked 2 of my doctor friends. and both came back with the same answer - results is abnormal. something is not right. can be anything. need to see doctor.
now, am i supposed to be worried?
hmmm, hmmm, hmmm...
