bloodwork results

sorry if this question is asked a lot, i looked through some posts and havent found it, so i figured maybe i was safe to ask it!

after getting blood work testing done, did it take a while for your doctor to call you with results? mine told me they wouldnt call if everything was fine, but im not sure how long it takes to get results..

i just want to make sure i DONT have high numbers for GB and im stressing out waiting! they took blood last wed morning and i havent heard anything back yet. hoping im fine, and wont hear anything until my next appt.

just wondering how long it took for everyone else to hear from their doctors regarding blood work.. 1 day, 1 week, 2 weeks?? thanks girls!

Re: bloodwork results

  • I was able to get blood results the next day both times they tested.  I tend to worry a lot, and they said it was okay to call the next day for results.  I am sure your doctor wouldn't mind if you wanted to call and just confirm your results.

  • I went on 5/30 ( 2 weeks ago) for my bloodwork and most of it first came in on 6/9. So it took a week and 1/2. I went in for my 12w appt today and the doctor said that some of the bloodwork still wasnt back but thats usually a sign that everything is fine. If something is wrong they will most likely call you.

  • I went to an outpatient lab at about 9am and I was able to get my results from my Nurse around 3pm that same day...they were faxed over from the lab so that may have helped.

  • I'm in Ontario so things might be different here but the lab told me it takes 1 - 2 business days for the results to come through. That being said it took my Dr.  a week to get back to me to let me know that I had low iron/low b12/high thyroid.

    In my past experiences with things being really really wrong (I had cancer) they will call you SO fast and you will be in the next day. So I would say if you haven't heard anything after a few days then your probably ok, or at least nothing majorly serious.

  • with my doctors office I have to call them to get my results because they always say they will call but the first time I trusted that they would actually call me was after an incident with bleeding. I went in for an emergency appointment and they did bloodwork and said they would get back to me the next day..I waited 2 days and nothing so I called on a friday 2 hours before they were supposed to close and apparently they had left the office early that day so then I had to wait the whole weekend wondering if everything was okay with me and baby. Finally I called Monday and was able to get results.
     
  • I didn't get a call on my blood work for a week and a half, almost 2 weeks.  Which was very frustrating considering they say they won't call unless there's a problem. So here I am thinking all is good since it's been so long and bam I get the call!

  • The longest I have ever waited is 48 hours to get results back. Why don't you just call your OB nurse and check to see if your results are back.
