"Waiting for results"

About: Russells Hall Hospital / Gastroenterology Russells Hall Hospital / Gynaecology

(as the patient),

I’m still waiting after 6 weeks for results from gastroenterology and gynaecology, I've made myself ill wondering what is wrong with me. Xmas was spoiled because I couldn’t get it out of my mind. Surely they look at their e-mails regularly and could put patients out of their misery.
