I did meet with the liver specialist yesterday. His response to rising CEA and liver enzynmes (with clean CT) is to schedule MRI of liver. If that is negative, a liver biopsy.
He was great at explaining the numbers and the possible outcomes. Although I don't look forward to any of it, I feel comfortable with the plan.
Thanks for your support.
