I actually went for an US on my gallbladder as I have a polyp that's been there for 2 years and grew over the last year. That part was unremarkable because nothing had changed but then he did an ultrasound of my kidneys. I guess I didn't expect it but when I was leaving I asked if everything was okay with the kidneys, and he stalled for a moment about to talk and then said that he had to look at the images properly beforehand and to get results from my doctor. This obviously shot up my anxiety tenfold (it's my fault really, I shouldn't have asked lmao) and now I'm wondering whether there was something wrong.
Is it normal for them to do an ultrasound of the kidneys when doing other abdominal ultrasounds?? I haven't had a blood test on my kidneys in a while so obviously am paranoid in case something came up since then..
(I suffer from IC and bladder problems, so obviously this sets off alarm bells in my head)
Is it possible he just didn't wanna say it was normal in case he studied it and found something and then it would be bad for him to have said it was normal? He said he was mainly focused on the gallbladder but when he stalled it made me panic a bit that he was holding something back from me adjasfk
I know nobody here is a doctor and can't really diagnose me but maybe someone can ease my mind as the next ten days is gonna be hellish hah.
