This is my first post but I have been getting wonderful advice from reading posts here for 5 months now. Thank you!
My husband (39 years old) was diagnosed with stage 3c colon cancer in oct, had emergency surgery to remove tumor, has had 2 clean scans & currently on treatment #11 of 12 chemo (oxaliplatin) treatments. Everything seems to be going good except his slowly creeping CEA level... There was never a baseline taken before surgery, but his levels over the past few months have been 4.2, 4.6, 4.2,4.6 and now 5.1 Any of you experience anything like this? Thanks for reading & for any advice you can send our way!
