Good Morning to you all! I have been on the NKR paired match list for my sister who needs a kidney since July 2012, and last night I got a call that they found a match for me, and for my sister! They are sending me the blood tubes to do the crossmatch, and I have a couple questions about that. Does anyone know how long it takes to get the results from the crossmatch test? I don't know if it's an instant result, or if they have to wait days or weeks.... Also, what are the chances at this point of the crossmatch tests giving positive (bad) results? Is it a double-check at this point? Or is there a big chance this won't work out?
I am so excited, but I don't want to let myself get too hopeful until I really know that both of our crossmatches come back good.
Thank you all in advance!
