Ultrascreen results and question

Hey everyone. I'm 35 and I have a question regarding my Ultrascreen results. The nuchal fold was 1.3 and along with the blood test it seems that I have a 1 in 2121 chance for Down's Syndrome. The number for Trisome 18 is 1 in 158.
I have been trying to find statistics for the chances of Trisome 18 according to age, but I've been unsuccessful. The genetic counselor told me that the results were normal for my age range, but also mentioned that the risk did not decrease after the u/s and blood test were factored in. I haven't yet done the AFP, but I was wondering if I should just go for the amnio anyway? Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Caitlin
