The fecal immunochemical test how long for test results to come back?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Takes seconds...: ...To perform the test, but your lab may "batch run" them (as they do with many assays) after collecting a requisite number of studies to make it worth their while, then may take several more days to report the results to your doctor. Call the lab if you're anxious to know.
