Has anyone in the SE had a Covid test in the last few days? How long for your results?

[cultkid]

Just wondering how long, I have a procedure on Tuesday and I am hoping they give the results back before then or I can't get it done
I had a test done yesterday I keep hearing amazing stories of it taking less then a day for results!

Still no results
💔

Fingers crossed for you that they come through tomorrow.

@MadameMinimes I literally want to pray even though I am not religious
My back is so painful I really need it sorted

Went to a drive-thru yesterday lunchtime in Sussex. Not had result yet. Need to know so I can get back to work as I don't get paid (zero hour contract) while isolating.

@RubixCubix it's so frustrating isn't it

I still don't have my results back I'm so worried now

My husband went to one on Friday and no results yet. I'm a key worker so if he is positive there are loads of people who need to know.
We just called a government call centre to check on results and they are still awaiting them. But the call took 8 minutes of constant questions including gender and ethnicity!
It was ridiculous!

So sorry cult 💐

Dd hasn’t got her results, she cant go back to college without them

The thing that is really pissing me off is that she didnt have Covid symptoms...her college told her there was no need for a test but her housemates (and i am using that term loosely) browbeat her into getting the test

Same here. DD got tested at Ashford drive in (south east) on Friday evening. We have not received the results as yet.
Personally not affected that much as she is not well enough to go to school and we WFH. But I do feel for others kids at school in her bubble because if she is positive then they need to isolate as soon as they can but school can't do anything until we get the results.
I do hope you get your result today cult as you really need it.

DD still waiting from walk-in test Friday at 10am (west London). DD is currently not well enough to be at school, DH can work from home but DD2 can't go to school and I can't go to work and generally life is hold until we know one way or another. So frustrating.

OP I hope you had some good news and were able to have your procedure today

SE here, had test (well DC did) Saturday morning and no results as yet... of course she has been absolutely fine and not coughed after taking it so now I've got her home from bloody school suspecting that I've wasted everyone's time!

Still no result yet here. Tbf DD's cough has got a lot worse since the test, so it was definitely worth getting done. She's well enough to still do her lessons though which are luckily mostly online.

She got the results 20 minutes ago

Negative...obviously

Fingers crossed cult

I tested last Monday (1.30pm) at a London walk in centre - negative result returned 50 hours later. My sister tested at stansted airport last Wednesday results back Thursday night

Still no results

I think I'm going to have to have one done privately at the hospital entrance and wait for the lab which will mean spending a whole day hanging around before my procedure

DS took the test on a Friday at lunchtime (Greater London). Still no test results. It's frustrating because we are now all self-isolating due to a cough that only seems to be coming on in the evening and a bit in the morning. Am worried that his results may be inconclusive because he didn't want his throat swabbed so we only did a nostril. I am already fed up after only one day of home schooling!
Sounds like we are not the only ones waiting, the labs must be overwhelmed!

Still waiting here but have just rung 119 who told me they couldn't give a timescale, but we would have the result very soon!

Drive in at Sussex early Saturday morning still waiting for results

They said most get results within 48 hours but can take 5 days

I still don't have mine

I'm hysterical

SE London here - results back in 22 hours.

@cultkid

Still no results

I think I'm going to have to have one done privately at the hospital entrance and wait for the lab which will mean spending a whole day hanging around before my procedure

I was going to ask if hav in it done at the hospital was an option , good to hear that it is, frustrating but at least you won't miss your op.

Good luck

It's a private hospital idk if I can have a rapid turnaround test and one done tomorrow

A whole day in hospital whilst fasting
I hate myself

My dd' test just arrived, she has tested negative. Test done-South east Friday 7pm . OP you might get your result soon.

DD1 has a postal test, went in post Wednesday lunchtime, got the results at 9.15pm last night

My DD got tested at 1030 yesterday (South east) and we just got the result at 830pm tonight - negative thankfully

I had a test at Plumpton race course drive in near Lewes last Sunday at 15:30
Had my result on Tuesday 07:44 (was part of the Imperial college random sample test of those with know symptoms)
