I wanted to share some good news with all of you. Today my tumor markers showed significant improvement. My CA27-29, and CA125 were all in the normal range (down from the 900's in February). My CEA was 10 (down from 3150 in February!).
I was on Carboplatin/Taxotere/Herceptin and Xomeda for mets to lungs, liver, bone, and too many lymph to count.
I'll be having a PET in a few weeks to determine extent to uptake.
The bad news is my resting heart rate was 120. It was high a few weeks ago too so it wasn't a fluke. I drink 128oz of water a day. Does anyone have any advice for me? I have an echo test next week. I don't want to flunk it!
