If there is a newer lab test they are using for long term monitoring that should have been made known to you.The staff may have dropped the ball, but the first omission was the Dr.'s.

More and more, I find you have to be a vigorous advocate regarding your medical care.
....can't wait for government run health care,....it will be even better,...NOT!
