About to lose my patience!

So, I got faint BFP's last week and finally got my + on a digi on Thursday. I called my dr and went in for blood work on Friday morning. I understand that there are 2 days in between Friday and Monday that are called the weekend and that most people (my doctors included) do not work (unless delivering babies, that is). So, that's fine. I'm patient and I'm occupied with things to keep me busy. I wake up all excited because TODAY'S THE DAY! I should get my results. I call my dr this morning and the nurse says that the results were downloading. Fine. Then I never hear back from her... so finally at 3 I call and ask for them again. She tells me that the results are in, she has them, but she can't give them to me until one dr (who is out of the office today) can sign off on them. WHAT? OMG! I think the hormones hit me! I said "you can't even just give me the numbers?" "No sorry, I can't tell you anything until they are signed off on! One more day!" "No way!! It's been 3 days, lady!" "Just one more day..." Obviously she's never miscarried and never experienced the pains of early pregnancy and the craziness that goes on in your head as you second guess everything, especially "will I miscarry?" So now I'm waiting until tomorrow. Oh and in the meantime they won't let me come in for round 2 of HCG testing. So, I'll have my progesterone number (which will be helpful) but only 1 HCG number. So the HCG is useless until I can get the second test done and then back. They are also closed on Thursdays, so if I have to go in on Wednesday for more blood work I won't get my results until Friday! OMG, I deserve a patience trophy after this one!!
