I had another blood draw today for my GD test and it made me curious- what happens to the blood after the lab tests it? How is it disposed?

Most labs will usually save the sample for a certain amount of time before disposing of it. That way if your healthcare provider orders more tests, they still have the sample and you don’t need another blood draw.
