her2 serum test

On June 5th I go in for my 6 month check up with my onc. I am approaching my 3 year NED date (July 08) and wondered if I should bring up the her2 serum test. A baseline? Is that something I want? Is that something beneficial to someone like myself? I am er/pr negative and not sure if that is a factor in this test either. I don't know much about this test and any help from you who know about it would be much appreciated.

Thanks for your help.
