You have been examined and may have had some tests. But the exact cause of your symptoms is still not clear. This is quite common. It can occur with many conditions that aren't serious. And it is sometimes hard to diagnose a condition early in its course or on a first visit. For that reason, you should watch for any new or worsening symptoms. You may need another exam or more testing at a later time. For now, you can go back to your normal routine unless you were told otherwise. Keep taking prescribed medicines as directed. Follow up with your health care provider or a specialist as advised.
Follow-up care
Follow up with your health care provider if your symptoms don't start to get better in the next few days. Also follow up if you have new symptoms.
If you had blood tests or imaging tests such as X-rays, you will be told of any new findings that may affect your care. Test results can be out of the normal range for a number of reasons. If today's tests were abnormal, it's important to follow up as advised.
