Hello,
We are so fortunate with how Mom is doing so well, so just a little thing that is nagging at the back of our minds. Since diagnosis in Oct 2013, CA19 has ranged from 42-49 even though chemo and SIRT has shrunk the tumor, and we even had a clean PET scan a few months back. However, with the clean PET the CA-19 had not decreased,and even increased a bit. At that point, they said not an issue.
On our last visit with the docs, all looked good but they had forgotten to order the CA-19. Decision was to stay off treatments and live life. However we had it done after the appointment, and it is up to 57. I know these levels are still low, but would love to hear from others on if they had these type of levels correlate with progression.
Thank you all-
Catherine
