I have had full body scans adn do not like it and it
does seem like it takes forever to to get results.
Now when I go every 6 months for blood work it takes a
few days to get it back but my doctor always calls me
to tell me the results or if they have to change my
med level. I have not seen my cancer doctor in over a
year because they can handle it here. I don't even
need a request for blood work, mine has a standing
order on it so I don't need it all the time. All they
have to do is look at my records to see why I need
blood work.

You sure need patience while waiting though.
