Hi

I recently learned about paraneoplastic syndrome too and how sometimes all of these symptoms can have underlying cancer.
Now In my case it's been 12 yes and I have had so much blood work and MRI and CT for one reason or other that I know that's not the case.

Nonetheless I had my near run a paraneoplastic panel, which was negative.
They can do it with local lab or send it off to mayo or athena diagnostics.

The other part of blood test is pet scan but I didn't do this as I didn't see the point in exposing my self to so much radiation to look for a needle in a hay stack!

So it wouldn't hurt to do blood test if it puts your mind at ease and one more thing you checked off.
