I had my labs on Tuesday, then the results showed up the next day online for my PCR. I have never gotten results that fast, plus they are sent to another facility for testing. It typically takes about 10 days for results. Can the PCR be processed that fast?
Turn around time for PCR results.

Wow that is awesome. Mine usually comes back on day three. Once or twice on day two.

Doing the PCR takes less than an hour. The rest of the time is shipping, stuff sitting around, paperwork, lab pathology review, and people not forwarding the result as soon as they get it.
