When I first began treatment for liver mets in 04, the CA 27-29 began to rise, however the ct scan showed the tumors shrinking. From what I understand, dissolving tumors can cause the TM's to increase as the body begins to process dead cancer cells.
Discuss it with your onc., when are you scheduled to have more scans? And are you feeling better physically? How you feel is also an important part of the decision making.
I hope that your T/X is blasting those cancer cells away and you will see a drop in TM's in the future.
