I had a blood test today early morning for a full blood count and thyroid etc as I’m worried that I have Leukaemia as it runs in the family. I’m wondering if my bloods showed anything serious how long would it take to receive the results? These were taken at the GPS

Very anxious here

I also have health anxiety and blood tests are my worst fear?? I always get my bloods back the day after and my white cells are always high so I thought I had the same thing last year but I had a phone call the day after to go see a dr just turned out I had infection... when you fear your health anything literally medical or health kicks me off and I have a huge meltdown thinking the absolute worst this is normal for us with health anxiety it can take 24 hours to 7 days with the lockdown it may take longer try not to fester honey I know it’s easier said than done let us know what your results are
