Will I be out of time to TFMR by the time my amnio results are in? Trisomy 21 NIPT, Delayed Amnio (USA)
My NIPT blood test at 12 weeks has an 83% chance of trisomy 21. It has taken weeks and weeks to get a referral for MFM, and now that I have just gotten referred for an amnio, their earliest appointment isn't until June 10th, I will be 22 weeks, then will be waiting for test results. The thing is, if the tests are positive for trisomy 21, I will want to TFMR, but I am terrified I will be beyond the legal window for the USA. I can fly or drive anywhere in the USA to receive care, but I didn't know if anyone had any advice or information. I would hate to be forced to TFMR just to beat a legal deadline and then the NIPT turned out to be a false positive. Any advice?
