Matt has been worried this past week that the primary colon tumor is growing. He had blood in the stool once a few weeks ago and now his stools are flat like before dx and he feels bloated with a lot of gas. He is taking Mirlax 2X a day so is not constipated. Last scan at end of Dec. showed good shrinkage of tumors in liver and lungs and last blood work had CEA to 1.6. I am just wondering if it is possible for the primary tumor to grow if everything else is responding well to Xelox?? I plan to call the dr on Monday but any experiences or knowledge about this might put his mind at rest.
Thanks everyone!!!
