Hello, Thnx to hear you. If I am your advising doctor I would like to tell you, that when you will get the result of your test is depend on which test you are carrying on. If suppose some rapid kit are available which gives you results in minutes. If you are going for some culture work out it will take some long time, if you want to go with PCR it will give your result with in a day. So consider the factors like money, duration, sensitivity and specificity of the result that will all is important when you go for testing. If you have anything else to ask kindly contact me Dr. Arun Tank. Thank you
