Blood Test Markers

in Stomach Cancer #1

I did an endoscopy last week and the dr told me there was a cancerous mass on the upper inside lining of my stomach. He also ordered a blood draw which I did the following day. I know I can wait for the dr to go over the results with me but the 4 tests - carcinoembryonic antigen, CA 125, prothrombin time, alpha-1-fetoprotein - all came back within the normal range. Nothing elevated. Does someone here have any insights on this?
