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 TOTAL IGE Test
