Tested High Risk through Blood work for Trisomy 18

I am really going to lose my ever loving mind till I get the results from My Amino test. I was told by my doctor office that I was i high risk fro Trisomy 18 .. that was through that blood work they do. They did a ultrasound during the amniocentitis they did....said baby looked good. called the doctor office Monday or Tuesday and they said that the tech that did the ultrasound didnt note any issues with my ultrasound.... good news I guess.....then I called today and they said the doctor couldn't tell anything through the ultrasound. I read every one elses postings about their trisomy 18/13/21 and downs expereinces and they tell you things from the ultrasound.... you all have hormone levels and risk ratios (they said they didnt have mine when asked) .... I am really going to go mad wating two weeks for the results... from everything I have read SOMEONE SHOULD TELL ME FLIPPING SOMETHING. The amino test was done friday 3/21/2014 I am posting this 3/26/2014... Two questions... One does my doctor office suck or is it just me? Also, shouldnt abnolmalties be listed in my chart on the ultrasounds if my baby has trisomy 18? PLease help IDK what to do and this is going to drive me nuts
