Tumor Markers Up/Down?
Hi Everyone!
This is my first time posting. I am currently on Abraxene & Herceptin for my bone mets. When I started Abraxene in Nov '05, my tumor markers were at 378. With each treatment, the markers have come down - 378, 312, 256, 162, 117, 77. With my last treatment, the tumor markers went up from 77 to 85. My dr did say they might go up a bit or level out, then come back down again. Has anyone else experienced this?
I was so excited that they were coming down steadily, and was a bit discouraged that they went up.
Thanks so much for any insight/advice!
