I received my test results from Navarro today. I am in the US.? I
mailed my urine sample on 8/21/17 by USPS Priority Mail.
?
Your HCG Test Result on 09/16/2017 is:
??? Index + 4,(53.0 Int. Units)
?
This is within the POSITIVE range(0 I.U. - negative, 1 to 49 I.U. -
doubtful[essentially negative], 50 I.U. & above - positive). A
POSITIVE
result indicates the presence of Human Chorionic Gonadotropin, a
hormone
found in the urine of pregnant women. Numerous medical reports show this
to
be present in the urine of cancer patients. However, the result must
be
correlated with the medical information(X-rays, CT Scans, Ultrasounds,
MRIs,
etc.,). A biopsy procedure confirms the diagnosis of cancer. The elevated
HCG is possibly coming from remnants(microscopic or otherwise) of the stage I
B cervical cancer . This serves as the baseline result.
?
Results can go up to 10,000 int. units or more especially in
testicular
cancer, some uterine cancers ( H mole and choriocarinoma ) and germ
cell
tumor. However, most other cancers have results anywhere from 50 to 80 or
90
IU. The result must be correlated with the medical history? together
with
other pertinent medical information (X-rays, CT Scans, Ultrasounds,
MRIs,
etc.,). The test cannot determine the stage of the cancer but when it
is
done on a serial basis, say once a month, one can follow and monitor
the
progress of the disease.

Monica,
I can only
personally speak of the Navarro HCG test. I use it to track my progress.
From my understanding, there is no blood test at this time that is lung
cancer specific. However, there are ones that can track cancer (generic) in
the body. AMAS, which is covered by Medicare is one, I believe. You have to
order the kit and then go to a drawing station. As I said, these tests are NOT
lung cancer specific. They are only good in determining IF you have some form
of cancer, and then use future testing to track your progress.
Others
on this site will be able to give you better info on the different blood tests
and their value.

Tom,
?
Thank you for your prompt reply.? Just two quick questions:
?
1) You mention the HCG urine test -- are you using the Navarro test from
the Philippines or do you have another source? My friend is based in US so
would prefer a local source.
?
2)? You also state " There are
other blood tests that will confirm whether your friend has cancer or
not."? May I ask which tests you are referring to?
