Default How long does it take to get Cystic Fibrosis tests back? - 12-13-2008, 07:16 PM

I am pregnant and was tested for cystic fibrosis along with a million other things on the 30th of August. I was back at the doctor a week later on the 6th of August, and the doctor said my results all came back normal but the down syndrom and cystic fibrosis tests had not come back yet. On the 6th I had my pap smear and pelvic exam and yesterday on the 15th got a letter in the mail saying that my pap smear, urine, and blood tests, and quad screen all came back normal, but the box for cystic fibrosis was not checked, I'm wondering if that means I am a carrier of the disease or if it means they haven't gotten the results in yet. I'm going to call my doctor in the morning, but I'm really worried. Does anyone know how long it takes to get the results back from that test?

I had this done back in August and it only took two weeks so it looks like someone's either asleep at the wheel and not paying attention to what info you're getting or there is some hold up. Next time you're in you should ask about it but if it came back that you were positive then I would imagine that they would have called you so your partner could be checked as well. Best of luck!

When I had mine done I believe that it was 3-4 weeks before I found out
