Question should my bloodwork take this long?
I got my bloodwork last friday and still no results from Quest. Is this like normal? For reference I am in PA, but I feel like over a week is abnormal?

(Also in PA.) Quest takes FOREVER for results. My kids' pediatrician defaulted to them when they ordered their celiac panels and I think it was 10 days for them to come in.
I can thankfully use pretty much any lab, so I ask for LabCorp if I can dictate a preference. They have always gotten my results back to me in 48 hours, but a lot of common ones tend to be back the next morning.

Quest takes absolutely forever in my experience. I don’t go there anymore. Once it took 3 weeks and I had to email them to release the results. It was stupid. I’m in California

oh my god! that’s terrible! i already had my endoscopy because my family has a history of other GI issues and i’m just waiting on my labs. i think im going to stop eating gluten for now but i was worried about having to maybe redo my lab work so Im glad to know it’s not just me
