how long does it take for rheumatoid panel to come back


Posted: Oct 21, 2010

My doctor had me do a rheumatoid panel on Tuesday.  I want to call for results but don't want to bother them too soon because they are swamped right now.  About how long should it be before they get the results?

;

I would say around five days - long time CMA

I am sitting here so depressed. I have two adult daughters and five grandkids. My oldest daughter is a widow (her husband was killed in Afghanistan in 2005) with two kids. She is a professional photographer. She took a picture of my other daughter and her kids which I fell in love with and when I asked her if I could have one, she said the price is $80 (black and white, 8 x 10). Needless to say with my lowly wages as a transcriptionist I could not afford it. She has become miss high and mighty e ...
