tonib,

My thought and my prayer also go out to you. Remember to hang in there and think positive.

tonib,

I think it depends on the lab. MY VL test were more dependent on what the insurance approved. They had to get them done at CPL which usually took about a week for them to send them off..get them back and let me know. I stressed the whole week...especially for my last ones.

Good luck on your results.

I'm still on the edge over here...but I have been very busy, I worked all day and I had an early evening meeting...too tired to stress,  

I was getting my blood tests at the doc office, so I don't know where he sends it...my doc will be out to Monday....so looks like I will have to wait.

Week 10 is next.....hoping and praying that is is all not for nothing....

Thanks everyone I will let you know as soon as I hear.

tonib,

     i know that feeling,pins & needles,just like the rash. in nj w/ lab corp. the cbc's  take 2 days w/ an added extra day for the vl. furthermore 1st thing tomorrow call lab corp, confirm the vl came in and request they fax it over to your dr. problem solved. relax take a deep breathe and chill out.lately shaggy's 1st cd and excersing to it really does the trick.

     forgot to mention have a banner of a school year. i retired in jan/13 after 29 yrs teaching to begin my treatment this summer and nip it in the bud before i became stage 2! use the joy & happiness you get from the kids for inspiration.

Hey tonib

Sending best outcome wishes your way.

I know the waiting is hard but the best advice is to occupied yourself with other worth while interests that can fill the time.

Do something good for others without them asking, it can fill a hole.

Matt

Prayers are always being said and shared for everyone here. Trust that the results will be what you can handle and what He has in store for you. We started Tx together and I have always felt that we shared a positive outcome together! You've always supported me and been interested each time my results came through, good or bad. I'd like to believe I can share the same interest with you and I want to support you with the same positive outlook, good or bad. The results we stress over are at times more difficult to believe than the actual results we receive! Do your best to relax and instead of wasting energy stressing over those unknown results, use that same energy to bring about the results you so desperately desire! You see I think I have a pretty good relationship with Him/Her (you just never know) and I believe that everything is going to work out just fine! We love ya!! xo

Went to the doc today for my blood test results, and everything came in except the VL, which will determine if I continue on the therapy

 

I have been totally stressed out all day over this and when he told me the results did not come in.....well disappointment does not really touch how I felt.

 

He wouldn't even let me make a next appointment...he said we have to "talk" about the VL when the results come in

 

Please send me some prayers and well wishes for at least 1000 VL or better yet UND...
