You may have killed it off or suppressed it for along time. This is
undetectable. WOW - Great News to say the least. Your like the
energizer bunny - just keep going and going . . . Steve - your going to
be one of those people that hold out long enough for a certain cure or
treatment that eliminates PCA for good. Never, Never Quit

It sure left me gasping. I told the nurse, "I guess it'll just have to do."
(she's relatively new and doesn't know yet how to take me).
Frankly, I'm not quite sure where it leaves me. I was expecting something
between .10 and .12 and hoping for less. I was trying to forecast
best/worst case scenarios based on those numbers. Ducking below the assay's
minimum leaves me scrambling for cogent thought.
It's a good feeling.

Seems like clear evidence that good things do happen to good people --
especially when they have big bunches of friends and fans rooting and
praying for them.
Go out and celebrate with a pomegranate cocktail. You deserve it!

I've tried that. It's so so. But it's excellent with tequila! And I'm
not kidding.
