Question re: 27.29 and 15-3 values

Are 27.29 and 15-3 markers initially high on most people PRE-TREATMENT with primary bc tumors?

Or does the presence of these high markers indicate something else going on besides primary tumors?

Nervous in TX

Thank-you!

TRS

Don't worry Terry, these markers can be high pretreatment.

temporary sigh of relief...

Becky you are a lifesaver. I was going over Ruth's bloods (looking at original WBC) and saw the markers and got really stressed.

Do you (or anyone) know how high they can go on primary tumors?

THANKS

Terri
