wonderif - what did you have measured?

speak to a doctor. receptionists are not qualified to explain results.

Go and see your GP, receptionists are not qualified to give blood results to patients.

i always give the basic info but any detailed clarification has to come from a gp. so if someone rings up saying they want their results i can say " yes - they are back and fine, no further action required" because thats what the GP puts on screen. any further clarification needs to be done by a gp. ask for a telephone consultation. a gp can phone you back tomorrow.
