Re: tumor markers

My oncologist never tells me what my tumor markers are because he says they can be unreliable. I really don't care I would rather know what they are. He can be evasive in responding to other questions as well. And, though I had the full regimen of docetaxol, carboplatin, Herceptin, and Perjeta, my large tumor only shrank by half and my very tiny tumor did not go away. I had neoadjuvant chemo followed by a mastectomy so that is why I know details of size of tumors after treatment. My cancer's response leaves be concerned.
