    Wow, this is incredible news. This would contribute to the rescue of many people who were unaware of their health situation. The need for phlebotomists will skyrocket as a result of technological advancement. I mean, I wouldn't be shocked if there weren't enough people to do the job. But it's not unreal since there are so many options, especially when a phlebotomy technician course costs from $700 to $1,400. As a result, it's wonderful that so many people will have the opportunity to be healthy.

    Wow, that IS good news! Thanks for sharing, Forherself!

    I wonder how long it will be until there’s been enough research and data collection to make this widely available? My greatest fear is that if I have a recurrence I’ll be Stage III or IV before I have symptoms. And as y’all heard me complain previously, for me, that CA125 is useless except as a severe anxiety producer!
