After all this time I can't believe that I have this question! :-) My onc said my PCR test would now be back in 1 week now that they are using IS. That makes no sense to me, why would results be faster on International Scale? Then the nurse said that the FISH test takes 2 weeks. Is this all correct?

Don't know why IS would make it faster unless they are now using outside lab that is faster. My last PCR came back in one day! 2 weeks is about right for FISH. Remember it spends a lot of time sitting n someone's desk.
