Just read some of the posts about follow-up exams. My ENT also prefers the physical/visual exam approach to things. While talking to my brother earlier today he raised a question that I might get a good answer to here.
Would there be any benefits to periodic blood tests? I'm not looking to be stuck with needles anytime soon; well anytime for that matter, but I'll endure whatever it takes. Should I ask the ENT at my next follow up visit about it? Does anyone know if it is worth it?
Peace,
Fr. Mike
