I had my latest blood work and all seems well. Cea level is at 1.2 again and no anemia. Some pains every now and again in the liver, but hoping it’s nothing. I just made a friend with a an oncology/chemo pharmacist. She mentioned taking metformin and possibly oncoloplex. Anyone take these? She also reiterated Vitamin d3. Also looking into a FoundationOne test. Anyone else?
Glad to hear you are doing well! My oncologist reiterated the importance of D3. I take 2000 mg every day. Also, I am pre diabetic, but I was not told anything about metformin. I wish I knew this yesterday because I had my onc appt and would have asked. I am now past the 3 year mark, and he decreased my appts to twice a year and CT scan yearly instead of every 6 months!
Hope you have a wonderful Christmas and healthy New Year
