Reassurance

Hello - just a quick question - just after a little reassurance, as now I’m in a panic.
I complete my first 28 days of Alunbrig on Sunday.
Met with the Consultant Oncologist Tuesday of this week, whom has said to continue with medication……..which I’m due to collect Monday afternoon. Had bloods taken Friday 31st Jan, in preparation for the Consultant appointment. All ok so far.
However, I’ve picked up this evening, a missed voice message from Oncology nurse - from Friday (yesterday) ensuring I’ve had my bloods taken prior to Monday for collection of medication.
I’m worried that I clearly should have had bloods prior to Monday. Which I have not.

I’m worried that they will not issue the tablets on Monday.
My plan is to attend first thing Monday morning and hope they can take bloods - have results in time for my appointment Monday at half past two.

Has anyone else been in a similar position / I really don’t wish for oncology nurse to not allow the release of the tablets.

Thank you
