Jean, here's a link to a company in California that MAY offer the test kit; there's contact information for your physician to request the test be sent to your lab:

is one of the markers you can have tested by Targeted Molecular Diagnostics, that Robin P referred to in her earlier posts. Just google Targeted Molecular Diagnostics and click on their menu of biomarkers for your oncologist.

Let me know if you need more exact details.

Hi Jean,

I really don't know anything about this, but I also did not want you to think I forgot about you. I did see the onc. last week but forgot to ask him about the other test. I got him to send me for a brain MRI and had that done on Monday. I am praying that turns out ok. I have not been in touch as my comp was down. Hope you are doing well and I will write that down so I won't forget on next visit.

All my best,

Liz J.
