Hi, Marions. My mom in located in South Carolina and I am in PA. Her CA 19 9 level was 149. She had a PET scan which showed hypermetabolic activity in the upper part of the liver, but the first brushings were not taken in that place…very confusing. That is another reason why they don’t think they can do surgery-they are not sure where the cancer is coming from. I was thinking of sending info to Mayo and Johns Hopkins. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks so much.
