Getting my blood tested on Monday for possible blood cancer, will they know the status that day?
I think it is in my blood as per my doctor. She is referring me for a blood ck at a c-care facility. Possibly coming from my bone marrow all she said. I guess it could be any of a whole lot of different kinds right?

Thank you very much for sharing your concerns with us regarding blood testing for cancer. If you are getting tests for a blood cancer you should know within hours. If other types of cancer are being checked, you might have to wait a couple days.
You’re totally right about it possibly being many scenarios, and it makes me wonder whether she ordered a test called flow cytometry which could take many days to come back. Again I’m guessing totally here so please take anything I say with a grain of salt until we have more information.
