this happened to me like 3 times, its so annoying ðŸ˜
I have recently submitted one and it's taking ages for the hospital to get back to me with the results - hope the same doesn't happen for me. Hope this time it works for you as feel your pain.

Well that was roughly a week and a half they took to get back to me. I thought it would be a lot longer to be honest
Here in Australia most samples are tested and  back within a week
Thanks Montykat - reason why I thought it was a long time was because I was initially told it would be the following day, heavens knows where they got that information from! Best of luck with you and I really hope things work out.
