I had blood work 2 days ago and today I called the PA for the results. He calls me back at 4:50 and I miss the call. By the time I call him back they are closed :(
You think the guy would have common to sense to at least leave a message saying everything was fine etc.
Unless of course it wasn't fine  :fragend005:

Now Im not sleeping all night worrying

I know how you must feel. I really do think that he would have said 'call back asap' or 'call back urgently' or 'call back because I really need to talk to you', if it was anything bad, though. In fact, even if he had said those things, it may still not even be anything drastic or deadly, just something that needs to be addressed quickly. Good luck :)

Yes! I have had this happen even when my results are normal! Like you say, can't they just leave that on the voicemail? Ugh, if only they knew the anxiety they caused!

The worst is when they do this right before a long weekend! I don't think they realized they've just wrecked your entire night/weekend...lol! Then whenever I call back it's always just to tell me everything was normal. Try to get some rest tonight - they're probably just returning your call.

Yea exactly! If I were the Dr. i would say "everything looked good, give me a call tomorrow and we can go over in detail"
