Re: Tumor Profiling Lab Tests

I had something called "patient knowledge, attitude and expectations. Genome sequence, molecule profiling, and DNA mapping. Results: Nothing.
They only tested something like 23 genes out of thousands and they didn't see anything there to help me in further tx.
Just an FYI. Not sure if it's the same thing the original sticky (tumour profiling) I think it sounds the same.
I had it done at Princess Margaret Hospital in Toronto, ON.
On the brighter side. Perhaps they'll find something in the future.
