Adriana, I have my CA 27-29 checked every 3 weeks right now. But in the past 2 years it was usually checked every 2-3 months.

Did you have symptoms or a reason why you are being scanned right now? Hope everything turns out ok for you in your scans!
The ankle swelling is slight, I really only noticed it because my downhill ski boots are custom fitted to my feet, and fit like a second skin. So when there is slight swelling, I feel it right away during ski season.

Sheila, I hadn't thought of diuretics, but i'll keep them in mind in case the swelling goes up again.
