Does anyone know the turnaround time for this test (LabCorp)? I forgot to ask my doc.

I certainly will post the results when I get them. The blood was drawn Friday.

Susie,

If you feel like posting your result I'd find it really interesting as you are a previous non-responder, right?

I'm a previous breakthrough person myself but it's much the same in that the interferon failed to do it's job with me.
