This morning I casually turned on the computer to check my labs from this Monday morning to find nothing is ready. It won't be ready until Monday!! What? Why seven days? Then I started to check what I was actually being tested for besides the blood sugar and urine....
1. Complete blood count including Hematocrit, hemoglobin... blah blah blah
2. Toxoplasmosis. Again (So glad they check it again)
3. Cytomeglovirus. Again (Same for this!)
4. Rubeola. Again- I was immune the first time around so I guess just to double check. Glad either way.
5. Iron (Cross my fingers this is good)
6. Calcium (Been taking extra extra supplements not to mention tons of yogurt!)
7. Blood Sugar
8. Typical urine and culture
Ok. Still, seven days for these? I can buy an at home monitor and check my blood sugar in less than a minute. Not to mention I know that urine doesn't take that long in the lab either so why not post those results a little sooner? Maybe I am being impatient but I want to know!
As for the other labs. Yes, I am curious to know the results. Especially since you can get toxoplasmosis from fruits, veggies, and some meats down here and not just from cats litter boxes like in the US. This one actually has me freaked out if I really think about it. Even though I try to play the ignorant patient sometimes I can't pull it off.
I guess I just going to have to be patient for the next five days. Oh and just to blow your minds- I am almost 8 months pregnant!! Can't wait till week 34 when lung maturity is at it's peak and then I can rest easy.
Patiently waiting patient :)
Tchau,
Sara
