Guest guest Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 When diagnosed with PA, I was told by the Drs at U of M not to bother having ARR tested any more nor was there a need to do repeat CT/MRI to check on adenomas, so my primary hasn't ordered them. I see some here are still having blood work checked and adenomas monitored once/year or so. Once a diagnosis has been established, is it necessary and should I be having them done?
