5. Sending you hugs.

Here’s a thought since you have questions about whether you’ve been correctly diagnosed. It’s a blood test that gets sent off to a private company. It checks for a huge list of cancers. It isn’t cheap at nearly $1000 and insurance won’t cover it. My primary Dr had a brochure in his examine room. I asked him about he said he did recently. Blood gets drawn locally and the tubes put in a special handling box the company provides. Then you have to take it FedEx. I don’t remember how long it takes since it was a year ago that I did it.

Just a thought ❤️
