Previously it was taking 3-4 days because of the sample load in a particular lab or diagnostic centre was too much. These days one gets it within max 2 days at the best from sample collection.

Dr. Kamran Suggests...

Take a Anti Nuclear Antibody / Factor (ANA / ANF), IFA (HEP-2) End Point Titre Test or Take a IgE Test Test
