I been part of the October 2009 forum and just posted the following note there about a cancer assesment test that is available now.  Just wanted to share it with the rest of you out there in case you are interested.   Hi Ladies, long time no speak/write, I have been meaning to post this information for months and finally have a free second to do it.  I wanted to tell you about a cancer assessment test that my Dad’s company does, and anybody in the Continental U.S. can take it.  I’ve taken 9 times throughout the various stages of my treatment and the number has gone down from what it was back when I was diagnosed in August of 09.  I am now in the normal range!  Yay!  It really is an amazing test that my Dad and his team have developed and I for one have found great comfort in being able to take it and know that my treatments are working.  Just a little needle prick (tiny blood draw) and I’m done!  :-)  I plan to keep taking it about once every two months to monitor the number, then once I am convinced that it is going to stay there, I'll taper off to once every six months or so.If you want more information about it go to www.youtestyou.com.
Basically you click on the “Take The Test” section on the website, fill out the form, they mail a "kit" to you, you go to the nearest clinic and give the blood sample, then your results are mailed to you.  That’s it.  The whole process takes about 2 weeks.Also, in case you are interested, here is a link to my testimonial that I wrote on his website:http://www.youtestyou.com/yty.php?fid=3008.  Hoping all of you are doing well! Warm regards, Holly

    Holly,

    I see the test is a litte pricey..............$189.  Do you know if this is covered by most insurances.  I hope you are not offended, but I can't help but wonder if this is not an advertisement for your dad's company.

    Dear thegoodfight,

    I am sorry you took it that way, it is definitely not an advertisement.  It's a relatively new test on the market and not very many people know about it.  It's actually a coincidence that my dad happened to be working on such a test and then I was diagnosed with breast cancer.  I feel very fortunate to have a test out there, my dad's company or not.  So I just wanted to share.

    I don't know if most insurance company's cover it, mine in particular does not.  

    Warm regards,

    Holly

    Hi Holly,

    I am curious as to why your signature says "mets" but your homepage info does not state any recurrence or metastic disease.  Is this test only for early disease?  Or only metastatic disease?  OR ???

    Holly: I believe it's against board rules to solicit, advertise or promote goods/services here.

    I am not soliciting or advertising anything.  I removed the post because I don't want anyone to think I am.

    Weety, my cancer metastitized to my lymph nodes.

    Hollycan,

    I hope you understood my question, since many times in the past we have had posters solicit.  That being said, I hope any member who is interested will PM you so that you can share the info with them.   So I guess I am trying to say thank you for deleting your post AND thank you for sharing info that now those who want can get by contacting you.
