[QUOTE="Lothlorien, post: 295172, member: 1024"] I work in the health profession and I've not heard of this before, though I probably should have, after looking it up. Maybe it's a newer test, I dunno. So, I did look it up and it has to do with blood clotting factor.....to help diagnose pulmonary embolism, deep vein thrombosis, etc. If it's elevated, it's great that they caught this now, to avoid heart attack or one of the above. Don't think of it as having to deal with another health issue. It may be as easy as taking some medication and changing your diet. This is good. When is your next appointment? [/QUOTE]
