I apologize if this thread is active already but I did a CEA search and returned nothing even though I vaguely remember putting something out there previously.
So DH has been fighting are for 1 full year. His CEA was the highest (unreadable) a 30 year veteran nurse had ever seen. After a few months that number dropped and dropped. Its lowest has been in the 50s he's back up in the 90s and I keep trying to tell myself its because he was forced to take a break from all chemo in order for 2 surgical spots to heal (mole removal NOT CANCEROUS & toenail removal due to chemo causing ingrowns)
I've suggested he talk about a new colonoscopy since its been a year since his last but for obvious reasons is reluctant. How often should he get colonoscopies? Needing a little encouragement today.
