How long does it take to get blood test results back?

Question

I just went to my OB/GYN and he took some blood to see if I am pregnant (my urine tests are coming back neg. but I am having symptoms). How long does it usually take to get the test results?

Answer 1

They usually recommend waiting 24 to 48 hours for test results. Often times the doctors office has to send the blood off to the lab and that can take a day or two.

Answer 2

Should be able to get it back tomorrow..it doesn't take that long  

Answer 3

Mine took a couple of hours i am in the uk though but i phoned after two hours and got mine  

Answer 4

I wish I knew, I get my blood test Fri.  I was hoping it was instant considering waiting is can be torture. How late are you? Good luck!

Answer 5
