So remember I had to go for my blood work for my cholesterol? So I went this morning. I just came home from Garrett's practice a little bit ago and there was a message to call my Dr. about my blood work!!! WTF!?!?!?!?!?!
First....results already!??!!
Secondly....I already have an appt for a recheck just to make sure the Chantix is going alright with me for in 3 weeks....if it was nothing, wouldn't they just give me my results then?

Oh and of course the office closed at 5.

So now I am alllllll nervous. UGH

Jen- that is weird that they have the results that quickly unless they have a lab right there. ugh about having to wait,((((HUGS))))

Nope.......lab was the hospital's offsite lab. Not affiliated with the Dr.'s office.
I am sooooooooo freakin nervous.

Jen, the offsite lab may have faxed the results of some of the tests already...chill out girl! You are fine!!!

Or...your sample hemolyzed and couldn't be analyzed and needs to be re-drawn. That happed to me more times than I can count when I was pregnant. Take it easy and don't stress over it.

I asked my neighbor last night what she thought about it(she is a nurse).
She said no way no how that particular lab got anything to anyone. She said that lab hasw to send everything out to be analyzed and even if a stat was on it, it still wouldn't have been read yet. Just how they are.

So no clue why they are calling, but at least my mind was put to rest a bit.

I'm with Sue...could have been an issue with the sample..don't panic!!!!!!

It's ok Jen, don't worry! Just tell us as soon as you talk to them!

OK I spoke with them.
I am shocked that they did get my results back so quickly, but my god this was not an emergency!!!!

So it is my good cholesterol they are concerned with. It is low. Mine is 40 and they said it should be above 60.
They suggest a glass of red wine a day! ROTFLMAO like I have a problem with that! Hey it's for medicinal purposes!!!!!

Oh god Jen that is funny! I'm sure you can handle that one! I'm glad it was not an emergency!
