A member asked:
Is it possible for the herpes antibodies test result to come out after 10 minutes of getting the blood sample?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not likely: Conventional antibody tests take about an hour to complete and Labs usually take a day or longer depending on the schedule for testing.
