rocknrobn26 Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 44 is still a low level. As I said before, the trend is what is important. They'll probably recommend another level be drawn in the near future. If the level continues to rise they may start doing studies to find the source. What a mensch! Doc, you ARE the man! Invaluable in so many ways! Thanks dude, is there anything that can't be learned on in the tailgate? This is supposed to be our last quarterly mri. After this we go to blood work every quarter and an mri every six months. The best people in the world are here, my friend! Polk, I have nothing to give except prayers, good vibes, and a positive outlook! The best to you and your family my friend! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polksalet Posted March 2, 2008 Author Share Posted March 2, 2008 Testing in the lab is imprecise. It's a more difficult test to do than a simple CBC. AFP values also are lab-specific. All our AFP tests are run by one laboratory. Another hospital using another lab would get slightly different values. That's why the trend in values coming from one particular lab is important. Am I clear? Ok gotcha, so from now on we should stay with the same lab. The imprecision of biology has always tormented me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
