pediatricians office drew the blood sample to test for lead in "the wrong vial" and now after letting me sit here pissing my pants in fear for a week and a half waiting for the results and even calling to demand them are finally letting me know they couldn't run it in the first place

I'm furious on your behalf!
I had to leave the room when Nikole had their first big-kid style blood draw because I didn't want to break down in front of them. So my husband held them while the deed was done and I cried in the hallway. Like a big soppy dork.
If your county has a health department clinic, try there, they know their lead testing.
i would put money on her just misremembering or not knowing which colour is for lead tests
why would you as the patient’s parent be able to give informed consent to using the wrong vial??? like you’re supposed to know off the dome why the vials matter and whether using the wrong one will affect the test?????
Clearly this is your fault.
