If you had an oncotype, how long did it take to come back?

I am really just curious. The doctor and the lab said 10 to 14 calendar days, but mine was back in like 8 days. Is that really unusual? It made me start thinking today that maybe they mixed mine up with someone else's. I know that it's probably accurate though. So how long did yours take to come back, if you know?

Thanks!

    About the same for me...
    Hi Nancy,

    My score was back in about 8 days as well.

    I found that my doctor told me the longest time frame for all my test results and evertything came back much faster.

    Hugs,

    is what it felt like. I remember we were waiting on those results before rads could start because obviously certain scores would mean chemo first. I remember being incredibly cranky during the wait. Just ask my husband:). I believe it took two weeks.

    As for the whole mix up fantasy, I did that with my biopsy results: what if the lab blah blah blah.

    I wish you the best. And who knows, maybe they did get you mixed up with someone else!!

    Thanks for your answers! I
    Thanks for your answers! I was so shocked that it was back 9 days after I had seen the MO and he was going to order it!
