Two days at my surgery but, you may have to press hard to get the results straight away. It depends who you ask. All these little foibles are sent to try us.

Mine are on-line and appear on my screen as soon as the GP signs them off. In fact my last ones were up before the GP saw them because one vitamin result was missing and she added it on herself the day after I saw them!

At my surgery, the receptionists will not give results BUT they will give me a print out of the results. So, worth asking, checking etc etc as it's likely you can get access to your results once you've found the 'route'

Good luck

Hi everyone. Today I had my bloods taken by my treatment room nurse for my appointment with the diabetes clinic next week.

I normally wait till i see the consultant to hear my results but I've been working really hard on my numbers recently so very keen (and a bit excited) to find out my hbA1c result in particular.

So I asked the nurse if I could ring in a couple of days for the results rather than wait the full week till I go to the clinic and she said no. She said the results go straight to the hospital and they don't have access to them.

How could this be? I thought my GP would definitely have the results when they come from the lab. I'm in Northern Ireland. Has anyone else experience of this?

Oh, I'm sure your GP has access to them.
