Am I worrying for no reason

I had my first diabetic eye screening yesterday and I was told it could take 4 weeks for my results. I received two missed calls today from a Preston number and the message was from the NHS saying saying somebody from the health department is trying to contact you.
I only worry as last time this happened it was to ask me to go to hospital where I was then diagnosed. Also I do like to worry!
 
We all do it @hisjen84 our mind goes into overdrive when this kind of thing happens. I'm hoping the result will be good for you - I know it's hard but try not to worry and beat yourself up, fretting isn't going to change anything - apart from your stress levels.

Wishing you the best
 
Thanks I've always been the same worry about everything! I'm sure it will be fine, and if not I'll deal with it like we do with everything else

Did they leave a number for you to phone them back? It may be coincidence but it is probably best to contact them as soon as possible in case it is related to your eye screening.
 
No they didn't unfortunately, I phoned back and it didn't accept incoming calls
