However, his oncologist said that they wont test again until after he is finished with chemo and I think she said he will have his first scan also after chemo and colonoscopy at a year from surgery. He will be finished with chemo, if he stays on schedule mid February and his year colonoscopy will be around June or July. I feel like I have read that many others have their CEA check through out chemo, so I was just curious.
