Update on Triple Marker Test

It's been almost two weeks since I gave blood for the Triple Marker Test. That's the test that looks for birth defects such as Down syndrome and spina bifida. We haven't received any phone calls from the HMO yet! That's a good sign. (No news is good news in HMO world, remember?) One lab technician said they would call within THREE days if there was any bad news, but I've heard elsewhere that it takes 2 weeks to run all the tests.

So far, so good...
