Avatar n tn Normally simple blood tests results like hemogram, total cell count, complete blood checkup, blood sugar, electrolytes etc are available the same day. Some times the tests are done and the report not uploaded on the computer due to technical delays. So if you do not get them by tomorrow, yes, definitely follow this up. Hope this helps. Take care!
Avatar f tn you had a blood test? what kind of blood test?
Avatar n tn MCHC is a HGB. reading in the RBC...this is an HCV forum. Do you have HCV?
Avatar m tn This was not a urine test this was a blood test. I just want to know if your WBC count would be up with any infection, or if there is possible to have an infection and not have a elevated WBC count.
Avatar n tn The HIV test is totally different from the test that you had. Your test sounds like a complete blood count. If you feel the need for being tested for HIV, please, by all means, ask your doctor to please have you tested. It is a specialized test and must be marked "HIV" for the test requested. Hope this helped. HIV means you carry the virus; full-blown AIDS is the disease itself. There are many folks living with HIV who never develop full-blown aids.
Avatar m tn A standard PCR takes about 3-4 days, but it depends on the lab and the type of PCR. Sometimes it takes longer if the blood is drawn at a hosptial lab as opposed to a national lab. National labs such as Labcorp, has a sensitive PCR called QuantaSure which can detect HCV down to 2 IU/mL and it takes 3 weeks for results to return whereas Quest Diagnostics has a PCR called Heptimax with a sensitivty down to 5 IU/mL and it takes about a week I think.

780520 tn?1235938417 My wife just had a blood test done. They notice her platlet level was low, although they did not give her the count. They want her to come back for further blood test. I've been reading about (thrombocytopenia) and the causes of it. I won't jump to any conclusion here but can you put my mind to rest? For I know that much of the time what we read online causes us to become over the top with our concerns. Also what will they being checking for with this additional blood test?
Avatar m tn What were her other lab parameters? Do you know what her white blood cell count or platelet count were? Also, what kind of symptoms does she have - how was this initially detected in her?

907812 tn?1245739802 My first Complete Blood Count came back and there are a few #s out of range, Platelet Count 11.5 Low , MPV 112 Low , Lymphocytes 46 High, I am taking Peginteferon alpha 2a 180 and 1200mg Ribivirin, any feedback on the results? Does it look like early Anemia?
Avatar n tn If your blood count is in the high level and the next month the blood work shows that it is negative is it possible to rid your body of Hepititis C in one month?
Avatar f tn You really need to get all the lab results to help the urologist see the big picture. It may be that he needs to have some more specialized lab test (blood) that is only done at certain hospitals (your doctor would send the blood there for you). He may need an ultrasound of the testies and possibly even a biopsy to see if the sperm are being made but just not coming out as they should. At the time of biopsy they can collect and cryopreserve the sperm for IUI or IVF.
Avatar f tn Hubby will be having his weekly blood test done through quest is there a way we can request they get mailed to us as well as his doctor? Im not a big fan of his DR or staff but he likes them and since hes the one treating i guess thats what matters, another question he has type 2 diabetes he is on oral medication the med is Janumet Can having diabetes lessen your chance of svr?
Avatar f tn Hi, Sorry you are frustrated. The lab you have reported is the CBC or complete blood count. For example, WBC is white blood cell count- yours is normal but if it was up it could indicate an infection. Basically your hemoglobin and hematocrit are normal so you are not anemic. The tests you should be asking your doctor about, for example, is what is your glucose (blood sugar). If the glucose is elevated you can be diabetic.
Avatar m tn It is like when you have a fever and trying to find out what disease you have because you have a fever. You would need more information such as when they do a complete blood count, which type of white cells are high. There are many types of white cells that are all counted in a total WBC count. There are neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils, lymphocytes, and each have a normal percentage. They may check this next time if you count is still high.
