PKU test results

Just got a letter that LO will need to be retested done due to a possible metabolic disease. We have an appt tomorrow with Pediatritian but I'm going crazy with worry. Anyone else have this result too? What were your results after retesting?

  • Good luck!
  • We had to be retested. I haven't heard back about the results yet but the pediatrician said they get a ton of false positives because they test so many kids. She said not to worry.
  • From what I've heard there are a lot of false positives with the newborn screen. It is just a screen and not a definitive diagnosis. Hoping everything turns out fine!

  • Good luck! Its probably just a false positive or error. I hear you have to fill those circles or it messes with the results. :)

    I never got my results ... hmmm. Guess I need to ask!
  • We also got retested, two Fridays ago. Ped said called back last Wednesday, which I did, no results yet and she sounded annoyed I called! Um, hello, YOU told me to call that day! But she assured me she would call when the results were in. I hope no news is good news for us both.
  • Thank you for the support ladies. Pediatritian and genealogist are fairly confident that he is negative but we went for additional blood work today. Hopefully we get the results quickly, I think I'll drive myself crazy if I have to wait too long.
