Falling asleep when my phone pings. Groggily click notification-not even checking what it’s for. The results from my mammogram open up. A mass requires further testing. My care team has not seen the results. May not see them for days? This can’t be the best way to deliver this news?
May 14, 2025 03:26Why are we dispatching test results to a healthcare app at 9pm? While also being like, “you can call your dr about this tomorrow but they won’t even know what you’re talking about tbh. Try again in a couple days. Maybe.” ????
Damn. Not what I would want to see in MyChart for sure. I'm so sorry.
That said ... "Further testing" could mean lotsa things.
Yes, I’m just hoping cyst and I’m going to tell myself cyst and ummmm just call the dr first thing I guess
I definitely think that a standard part of medical intake should be “are there hours you do not want to receive test results/do you want to check this box where well only send it along once your doctor reviewed it”
(Personally no matter how much I like my doctors I do not trust them to not miss something in my results and I want them right away no matter what! But I have also looked at a lot of 11 pm test results for worries friends so 🙃 different folks want different things!)
Meg! Oooof!
Yikes. By text?
I have the UChealth app. So a notification that opened up the app and results when I opened the phone 🫠
