Call your doctor: Doesn't sound like tumor. Why are you being so passive? Call your doctor on the phone ; ask him/her to discuss it with you. Or ask the doctor to mail you a copy of the report with his/her written comments on it. Ask to be called if there is a cancellation to get in sooner. Ask to see the actual images. Be proactive. Doctors are busy ; can't read minds. Knowledge is power.
