Re: Tumor markers are up, & so is my anxiety!
I would see if I could talk my HMO into letting me get a second opinion. I had a problem with an oncologist many years ago when I started this cancer thing. I was able to talk to my HMO into letting me see two other oncologists after I told the HMO about the problems I was having. I consulted two oncologists and I found a new one that I was happy with.
By the way, if the scans do not show anything significant try to find out if you have inflammation, lymphdema, benign tumors or seromas somewhere in your body. They can all raise the tumor markers.
