My GIST was found because I ordered a private blood test, looking for athletic information. My GGT was high so they did an endoscopy and found a golf ball size tumor. I had surgery 6/1/22 and had no other treatment. This week I had a CT scan and there is no sign of recurrence. I'm feeling great and very lucky!

What was the name of the blood test that found the elevated GGT please?

We're on the same track! I have had no recurrence in 1 1/2 years but I still have scans every three months. They do have a tendency to come back but with regular scans we will be way ahead of the game.
