freaking out....

[KirstenAlecia]

So if you all remember i had a Dr. appt last Thursday and had labs drawn on Friday. Well often they post the results in my online access. The only one not shown this morning is the AMH. Everything else shown is in normal range.

Freaking out....the results must not me normal.

[boobacat]

Good you had normal numbers to start. Will they call you? Maybe it was an omission error. Fx you get a good report.

[mom2boxers]

Fingers crossed it just hasn't been updated/entered. Maybe the results for different tests come back at different times and the doctor hasn't reviewed them yet to be released in your file?

Or maybe they screwed up the test and they had to re-run it with the remaining blood in your sample and they didn't realize it until it was time to update the system.

Good luck!

[KirstenAlecia]

When I worked in a medical facility abnormal results don't become accessible to patients till the dr talks to the patient.

I think this is why I feel this way.

I guess its possible that that one takes longer to come back. The other ones are fairly standard. I can try to hold out hope for that.......but I'm already emotional so its hard for me not to go there. I sort of have been expecting not good result too. :/

KirstenAlecia, When I had mine done the AMH took a week. The girl filling out the paperwork warned me that FSH/LH/Estriodol would be quick but AMH took a while. Maybe that's the case for you too? FX.

[dream2be3]

My AMH also came back almost a week later than the other tests. FX that you'll get your results soon and that they're normal! Stay positive! I know, it's hard.

[mom2boxers]

Can you call the doctor's office and ask them if the results are in and inquire if an appointment is going to be required to discuss them? Then maybe you can find out if the one test is just taking longer like it did for the other ladies. Then at least you'll know.

@kirstenalecia, I'm a nurse practitioner and I would guess that the AMH may be a send-out lab. The others could be processed right in the clinic, but perhaps the AMH has to be sent to a nearby (or not so nearby) hospital. I work in a hospital and order labs on a regular basis that need to be sent to hospitals in other parts of the state or country. Based also on the responses of vh2014 & dream2be3, I'm guessing that's the case. They totally should have warned you though. UGH!

[luvmyponies]

I'm sure it's just that they don't have the AMH results back yet. Also, if all your other numbers are good, it's a good indication that your AMH will be ok too. Can you call them and find out if they're still waiting on the results and that's why they haven't posted them?

[KirstenAlecia]

Thank you ladies. I actually feel a lot better after reading responses. The hospital is across the street and I think every thing in done within the organization. If it takes a little longer to get then thats most likely the case. Im gonna try and chill out a bit.

[lickwed]

We don't have online access so I could only wait for the doctor to call. I can't imagine how stressful that is. Hugs and FX they just haven't come in yet.

[winogirl]

KirstenAlecia, i feel your pain. I'm also currently waiting for my CD3 labs to show up and for my DR to call me. She claimed she would call on Monday but nothing so far and nothing has been loaded on the online portal yet either. It will be two weeks on Thursday since I've had the draw.

[wannabmama]

@krisstalespix I hope it's just a delay in the results. As with all of this stuff, the waiting is the worst! Fx all is well!

[URMySunshine77]

I hope that the others are correct about the delay. It sounds understandable that one test might take longer. FX that all of your tests come back A-OK.

[meredithcarole]

I hope it turns out to be merely a delay.

[KirstenAlecia]

So ladies I received a letter in the mail today about my labs. The letter reads "one or more of your laboratory tests were forwarded to a reference laboratory for processing"

It is the AMH. The Mayo Medical Laboratories in MINNESOTA! lol. ok freak out over.....for now.

[b0710]

Glad the freak out subsided Hoping for good news for you!

[KirstenAlecia]

still gonna pray for good news.......i have anxiety over this still.

The fact that it took us 3 years to get PG has me thinking the worst still though.

[EmsMama15]

KirstenAlecia, that's in my neck of the woods. When I mentioned I order a lot of tests that get sent out to other hospitals - I was actually thinking of Mayo. They have a huge laboratory and run a lot of different tests. I'm so happy that ended up being the case!! Keeping my fingers crossed for you.
