Okay, I know this has come up before on various threads, but I would really like a collective "wish list" from you guys on what follow-up I should demand. My ONC. is pretty cool, and will probably give me what I want/need (within reason). Bone scans, MRIs, CTs, CBCs, etc.
I have not had genetic testing yet, so I am also interested in the ovarian consideration.
He does not do blood marker tests, so I have nothing to go on with that. Sooo, based upon your extensive knowledge of what is out there...
What would make you feel the most comfortable?
What would you want?
What would be the most effective?
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I am on a new pain med for my back, so I am quite chatty this late night.
Take care,
