Stomach Removed Due To Cancer,blood Test, Suggested Simon Globulin Changed. Suggestions?
hello,
my father just got a blood test result from his cardiologist and he stated that the "simon globulin" has changed from a 13 to a 11.7 I am a sonographer and have never heard of this. Can you please elaborate a little. My father has had his stomach removed due to cancer and was told to see his oncologist to further check this?!? Thank you

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
There is no current medical term simon globulin. It is possible that your father may have misinterpreted what was said.
It would be difficult to say what was the actual blood test that was done. It may have been a decrease in hemoglobulin from 13 to 11.7.
It would be best to speak to his doctor to find out the exact test and the result.
I hope this helps
