Greetings,
I have not been getting regular blood work done and i am perplexed at why :/ Is it that we dont need it and if so why :/

Please, let me know if there is important testing via blood or Urin that should be done.

In healing hopes for all!

Amanda

Ivan's blood tests were not regular but they are done a few times a year. They check liver enzymes if they are elevated then it is a suspicion for the occult liver mets. Also the blood work needs to be done as a base line so if in the future you start some type of the systemic treatment then they can compare the current numbers to the previous numbers that are normal for you to see if there are some type of toxicity is starting to develop.
