Urgent Care COVID Testing in OKC

The amount of time to get your results back will depend on the type of test you get. A rapid covid antigen test takes about 15 to 30 minutes to get results while a PCR test has to be analyzed in a lab. PCR tests take about 24 to 72 hours for results to get back to our doctors.
 
The PCR test, or polymer chain reaction test, is performed in a doctor’s office using a swab to collect a sample. They might swab your throat, nose, or mouth. The sample will then be tested in a lab for coronavirus and then the results will be given back to your doctor. PCR testing is nearly %100 accurate, the only problem is that it does take a few days. We suggest getting a PCR test to confirm your rapid test.
 
Covid-19 rapid testing is easily accessible and can be done at a doctor’s office, walk-in clinic, pharmacy, or at home. Rapid tests look at the antigens on the surface level of the virus. These tests are much less accurate but still work the majority of the time. They work best for people who are already showing symptoms and are very contagious.
 
You may be wondering which covid-19 test you should get. Talk to your healthcare provider to discuss the pros and cons of both!

You may experience a wide range of covid-19 symptoms including but not necessarily limited to the following:
 
– Fever
– Loss of smell
– Loss of taste
– Cough
– Difficulty breathing
– Fatigue
– Aches and pains
– Discoloration of skin
– Red eyes
– Sore throat
– Headache
– Confusion
– Dizzy spells and fainting
– Chest pain
– Chills
– General weakness and malaise
 
In many cases, your symptoms will dissipate within a few days or weeks; however, if you experience covid symptoms for an extended period of time, we suggest going to an urgent care center or emergency room for further testing. Screening tests of the lungs and respiratory system will help your doctor come up with a treatment plan. You may also have to see a specialist if you have a pre-existing condition such as diabetes or cancer. A weakened immune system will make it a little bit harder to deal with covid symptoms and may cause further life-threatening complications.
