If your in a hurry for your results you can ask the DR to put on the form that you will call up the lab for the results and you can call the lab later that day get them. If you can wait another day then the DR can have them the next day if he is not a paper DR. If he is a paper DR (which is what the lab calls them,) it means he likes the results to be posted to him, not faxed or emailed, that can take two days.

I know what you mean, 2 cycles ago I was two weeks late, it had never happened to me ever I am never late always 29 days like clock work. The doc did blood tests for pg and for other hormones apparently I didn't 'o' I wasn't tracking my cycle then either. But last cycle I tracked it and was 2 days late. Go and have the blood test and at least then you will know one way or the other. I know how hard it can be to be constantly dissapointed, but as long as you don't know your life is on hold just waiting for something. :fingerscrossed: for you that you are. Please keep us informed and let us know when you get the BFP:)
