Q: how long douse it take typically to get blood test results back?
Megan,
It can take a good week to 10 days to get results back, just depends on what tests are being done.

Hi Megan,
Welcome to MyRACentral. It depends upon many things. Which tests were being done as some take longer to conduct (testing for Vitamin D levels for example). Which lab is conducting the testing. Also, whether your doctor's office will call you with the results or have you wait until your next visit.
Did you ask for a copy of the results be sent to your home? I also request this and often receive the results in 7-10 days. But that is for very simple tests which do not require additional time to process.
Hang in there. You will be receiving your results soon enough (I hope). Thanks for your question.
When I had blood work done. Several times in the past month to try and diagnose. It only took a couple days (weekdays)
