Hi Julia, I hadn't needed blood tests before I got BC, so when I had my first in 1998 my Alk Ph was 142 in red writing, and ever since then it has been up to as much as 165 which it is at the moment, at one stage this year I actually had one in the normal range, it can't be explained, but also sorts of suspicians, fractured left shoulder with collapsed humeral head which makes the bone break down, I have Horishimots thyroid but only for last 3 years, I take a truck load of drugs and vitamins, none of my symptoms are related to bone mets or any other mets and at the moment I am having problems with my other shoulder, try not to worry, easy said I know, but when I asked my onc about bone mets he said, you'll know by the pain, so it had to be worse than the pain I went through with my fracture, and boy that was painful. Hope this helps, the results are mostly a guide and my CA-15.3 tumor maker has always been under 30.
Hugs Lyn
