I went for some routine blood work and a STI panel last week. The doctors office called to set up appointment later in the week – usually if it was a positive STI they would tell you over the phone asap right ? /u/Ok_Enthusiasm5338 Sex

My anxiety tends to run away with me at the best of times since I have panic disorder – and the soonest appointment they gave me is Thursday afternoon.

So I just wanted to get a general idea of peoples experiences when getting a call back regarding STI’s. In the past with a different doctor they just called me and told me one was positive and to come in and pick up the antibiotics. My understanding is they want to tell you asap not make an appointment for later. Since I got general blood work it could be something to do with that instead – I called and asked if they can tell me what it’s regarding but the assistant was very vague and said the doctor just requested an appointment be made.

So what do you guys think/what are your past experiences – what are the chances they would wait to tell me ? Cause now I’m sweatin and freaking out – just need to know if it’s “warranted”!

Thanks in advance
