Re: Her2 extracelluar domain test
I have the her2 serum test done, and we see it as a tumor marker, similar to the ca 27/29, etc.
I think the reliability is also similar to other tumor markers. For some, very reliable, but for others, not so much.
That being said, mine was at 14.9 the first time I had it tested and now is done to 12, so I am happy.
