Hey Chris -
I am back from abroad and hope this my reply will get to you in time.

I had this test in February and had a good result of around 9, as I recall without looking it up.

When I first asked my med onc to order this test after San Antonio conference of 2004 he was not interested. This year he was - and he attends all these conferences so is "up" on new tests.

If I suspect any cancer activity I am sure he will order the test again.

Hope the word is getting out on this one and that the research will delve a little deeper into the question of possible use for early stagers.
