Thank you so much for your reply. I've already searched the closest Mayo center to us. I suspect the gyno will send her to a oncologist. My current aggravation comes from the ambiguity of the radiologist wording. I had a cancer scare myself years ago.... mine turned out fine....but, I had to have numerous scans... CT, MRI, PET, etc. So I'm familiar with the process.... I've NEVER seen the term " worrisome"...a Google search of radiologist terminology doesn't help.... one source says "worrisome" is less concerning that "suspicious" another source says it depends on the radiologist. This inconsistency should not be permitted... is your Physician supposed to be a mind reader? I just wish more clear terms had been used. It's frustrating! I hope your wife is doing well... Thank you for your time and support!

Hi...it would seem that both ambiguous and definitive wording will encourage further investigation. Yes, while "worrisome" has many interpretations, all would lead to the same point....further investigation. Beyond "normal" or "unremarkable" findings, there are paths to take. Knowledge and infomation is power! Best wishes on the road ahead!! 💪🌞
