Kristen -
The way this poll is set up I cannot add CEA, as I have been having BOTH the CA27-29 and CEA drawn regularly for some time now. The CA27-29 rose with my liver mets and the CEA rose with my brain mets.
Go figure!
In my case there has been a good use for both those markers.
The poll only lets us choose one answer, which may not be exactly right for the one answering, as in my case.

I also had some symptoms with the liver mets, but not with the brain mets. Could not check that answer on the poll either.

But thanks for asking the questions.
