Hi just wondering if anyone has had the ELF blood test and could advise on how long it takes to get the results. Had mine done on 4th November and just spoke to the consultants secretary and there’s no results yet. Has something gone wrong? Thanks in advance for any advice!!

Hi I had an ELF test and it did take a while, can't remember exactly but 3-4 weeks or so. It is only done at certain hospitals, mine had to be sent off to Bristol, so they do take a while.

I've read a few studies on the ELF, and it seems pretty accurate, especially when used in conjunction with other screening tests to create a whole picture.

Good luck
