Re: Are blood tests really that important in follow up care?

Thank you for responding. I have had long discussions with my oncologist to no avail and even started asking around for another oncologist recommendation. That just made things worse for me. I can "stay" with him as long as I don't have to deal with him anymore. If I progress to stage 4, I will not want him as my oncologist. Are blood tests really that important?
