Signatera testing: Has anyone had this done?

Diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer a year ago. Had surgery and 12 rounds of chemo which ended in July. First round of scans and labs looked good however I just received a positive Signatera test. It went from zero to 2.0.
Need a PET scan. Oncologist said not to worry yet but how can I not? Does anyone have experience similar to this? Why would Signatera be positive and it’s not cancer all over again?

step by step... is a good reminder for me when I start freaking out about anything! Try to hold on, take medico recommendations and use your gut too It can tell you what seems good to do or try... keep yourself informed. I use Youtube and it is invaluable but I have worked in healthcare 15 years as a MSW/psychologist I am a foreign resident from U.S in Ecuador dx in May with Stage 3 after an emergency surgery and resection of a large tumour in the juncture of the sm/lg intestine. Keep asking quesions and remember your body has lots to tell you as well... stay strong. You have been through alot!
