My number was always in a narrow range of .9 to 1.2 for about 10 years. But my last test was 1.7 Should I be worried? I showed some concern in the doctors office but he shrugged it off. He said it's "non-spacific", as if I may have done something to raise it temorarily. I know it's possible for the number to bounce around but can't help but worry about it.
