I'm sorry but I don't know what the test is called. I think the information I outlined is probably enough for a doctor to know what to do. I would definitely be tested for it if I was you, especially if the surgery is going to be elective. Whether you want to be tested so you have the info in case of an emergency surgery or not......? (This reminds me, I still have to put this info by my insurance card!)
I have quite a bit in my blog on my surgery. I had two tumors and part of the intestine removed where the cancer had spread so it was quite intense. But it's been over two months now and although I'm still feeling some residual effects, I'm feeling prety good. I just got back from two weeks in Africa, in fact! Thanks for asking and keep up the dialogue as much as you want. Best--Mary
