Hello,

I just got back from a testicular ultrasound about a lump which it turns out is a small cyst. As it was a cyst, the clinician decided he should look at the contralateral kidney. After looking at it for around 1 minute he said nothing of if the kidney was ok or not and instead just told me to book an appointment with the doctor in a weeks time.
Is this standard practise after an ultrasound? If everything is ok, which it seemingly was up to the point of examining my kidney, why should I need to see a doctor after?
This has left my very worried and I am now not looking forward to a week of coming up with a number of diseases I might have etc etc.

If anyone has any advice or knows of anything about how normal the subsequent doctor appointments are, it really would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Dave
