Did you ask what blood tests were being done?  Some are returned within 24 hours, others can take up to 14 days to process, dependant on what was requested.  But GPs don't tell us that and in 8 years of working in a Clinic, NOT ONE patient asked what tests were being requested  :o, the word 'routine' seemed to be enough  ::).  It may be then that by the time you go to the next appt. the results will all be there. 

What ever.  A 'wait' of a few days won't alter the outcome, good or bad!  ........... and breath ;-).  It is lack of communication from the medical profession that is at fault, I would like every medic to have to spend 2 weeks in an NHS Bed B4 they are allowed to qualify!  :bang: .......

Let us know how you get on!  Do take a notepad and ask the GP what was requested and if the results are 'within normal limits'.
