It has been my understanding that Pap tests are only sent to the lab
once or twice a month. If you had your pap right after they sent a
batch in, it could take a month to even get the pap sent to the lab, so
it may take six weeks to get the results. Hang in there. If something
is wrong, they will let you know.
