Hi everyone,
If you remembre my las post m'y husband's CEA had gone up to 7,1 and we were worried stiff.
We went in for his scan yesterday and visited with his onc for the results this morning. No change from last scan except lots of inflammation on his hip.
So, he says that this is probably the cause for the rise but just to make sure he ordered new blood tests and a short colonoscopy on Thursday.
He says that the inflammation iprobably is the culprit here but he just wants to make sure with a CT/PET scan .
He says we should relax and plan our trip for the end of the month. Just wanted to share this first good news with you and hoping those numbers come down on Thursday.
Thanks for your good thoughts
