I was reading about liquid biopsies and DNA bloodwork that would be better for detecting recurrence than tumor markers Has anyone tried this or do you know how to take advantage of this?

CA 27.29 was 21 about a month after chemo but was tested this week (6 months later) and has risen to just out of normal range at 41. I know these tests are not reliable on their own but…
