AZGP1 Testing

Hello All,

I was taking a stroll around the internet and came across the Canadian
Prostate site:w w w .prostatecancer.ca. A little deeper and I discovered
this article on AZGP1 (zinc-alpha2-glycoprotein) and a study that
corrilates decreased levels of this protein in the prostate at the time
of prostatectamy and increased chance of mets. (I know, its just a
study) My question is: what is the likelyhood that my prostate was
tested when it came out (a year ago tomorrow, Jan 26)? Can it be tested
today? I am under the assumption that my prostate is currently frozen
somewhere.

Sox,

Didn't they tell you? All of that stuff goes to the Swift meat packing
plant.

Hospitals need to find every source of revenue they can these days.
