To all pregnant ladies when you did your HIV testing how long did it take for you to get your results back??


I took blood tests on wednesday may 7th along with an Hiv test. Today is May 10th..How long does it take the lab techs to get an Hiv test done??? Im really worried!!!

The lab guys lost my results so it took about 4 weeks for me to get them back! I think I was an isolated case though, so don't worry too much! You'll get a phonecall if there's anything bad though, if everythings fine then your midwife will tell you that at your next appointment x

I had this same problem. I "was" with the military and had Tricare.... which is horible!! It took 5 weeks to get my results and all was fine. I kept calling the doc to get results. If you are worried about the results and the doc doesent haven anything for you on Monday, you can go and get tested for free in most cities. The results come back to you with in 2 days. I wouldnt worry about it. Have you given blood? If so and they had accepted it you are fine. They test all blood before it is sent to a hospital. Keep cool. I know its not easy (Ive been there). You will be fine!!

A full blood analysis usually takes about 4-5 days. If you ring the doctor who ordered your test, he/she will be able to tell you if they have been received back from pathology and possibly give you the results. Some doctors don't give you results on the phone so you may have to make another appointment. Best wishes
