We are happy to help. It's our hope to help others from what we learned from Jewel's illness.

Good job Abbie for being seizure free for all this time! You mommie loves you and what a terrific mommie you have you lucky little girl!

To answer your question: We get most of Jewels lab results within 24 hours. Her Thyroid and Bromide takes a few days longer. I don't recall how long the Bile Acid tests comes back. It all depends on the lab.

Make sure you get a copy of the full lab results. Since you are in the medical field I'm sure you won't have any trouble reading it like I did. Many doctors do not explain each test/result and it's worth taking the time to learn.

For those of you who would like to know how to interpret the lab results here is a link to a terrific website:
