Mine took 5 days...2 were the weekend....I lost 7 pounds from stress and worry. The Dr. didn't tell me what the tests were for...just that my white blood count was a little high. I'm on watch and wait...Dr. says I am in the 33% that will not need treatment....to put it in the back of my mind. Easier said then done....but I have gained those pounds back!!!! Like all of us CLLERS we worry watch and wait...so many good drugs out there....knowing that eases my mind.

Mine took a few weeks I think but came back positive for autoimmunity (+ANA) rather than Sjogrens. Then I had a lip biopsy and all became quite clear as it was very positive. But this is classed as seronegative Sjogrens because of negative anti Ro and La.

Took about a week. Mine came back SSA/ro positive. I was diagnosed with Sjogren's and was put on plaquenil. It's still a battle bc now my test result shows I have alpha 1 deficiency...so I have to see a pulminologist to check my lungs. But it is better to know then to wonder and worry about the what if's. Wishing you all the best.
