Covid

Test results through the night?

59 replies

Toddlermum1990 · 31/08/2020 22:43

Anyone who has had a test via a drive through have you had results throughout the night?

I had a test Sunday morning and awaiting results I suffer with anxiety and haven't slept last night and currently pacing. I've refreshed my emails about a million times today. I've got cold like symptoms but have a temperature so not sure if it is covid or not but my husband is more poorly than me. (Coughing)

I dont even know why I'm posting this as I know it won't get the results any quicker!!

I haven't had a test but I do know a couple of people that had their results about 6am in the morning.

I hope you get your result soon. Is there anything that you can do that would help take your mind off things & help relax you? Reading, watching something on TV etc?
Regardless of whether your result is positive or not, you're going to need your strength to get better. Which means you need to sleep.

Should have said, I got both a text and an email. I opted for both when I booked the test online.

They have my number and email address so not sure which they'll do.

I'm supposed to be working from home at 7 am too, so need to try to sleep.

So annoying having anxiety cause I feel breathless then worrying its covid but know deep down its anxiety.

Currently watching TV but still can't stop bloody checking my phone.

I got a text today very quickly followed by an email. Tested Sunday afternoon and results sent late evening. Good luck. It's hard to sleep waiting for results isn't it?

I got them both by text and email.

Try not to worry - it’s highly unlikely you have it, but I know it’s easy to say that Flowers

I had a test last Sunday at 11am, results 2300 the next day. I think Sunday delays things.

This weekend my test result was a little slower (about 16 hours)

Most test result have been around 12-13 hours and that’s taken late on the afternoon/early morning evening Apart from earlier on then around 24hrs

Have got tests results on the way to work so about 7-730

I had a test at 3.30pm Saturday and got the results back at 8am Sunday. DP did it at the same time and got his result at 3am Sunday morning. The wait between the two was the most anxious for me. Both were negative

Yeah the wait is agonising. Im worrying now its positive and that's why its taking longer, cause track and trace may be calling us?

My mums in my bubble and is high risk, ive social distanced from her still but that's whats making me worry.

When I went to a drive thru, got tested at half 12 in the afternoon, results came at half 9 am the following morning. I know it is worrying but chances are you don't have it. Keeping fingers crossed for you x
