Re: Obsessed with tumor marker number?

Here in England we don't get markers done for bc. We also routinely don't get pet scans unless specific circumstances or trials. So we rely on ct scans at 6 monthly intervals mainly.i often wonder if this is good and my brilliant onc did my markers once because I pestered so much! His view though is that they don't work for everyone and create MUCH anxiety.
