Which markers & why
Hi Kim -
Glad you were feeling so grand that you forgot something important! That IS a switch, isn't it?
From day one I had the CA27-29 marker test - that is five years ago. I had not heard of the 15-3 until later when I started looking at some cancer sites and reading Dr. Susan Love's book.
I asked my med onc at a visit what the difference was. He said they feel here that the CA27-29 is a newer and more accurate test. That is what the lab set up with now and that and CEA are all they use for me at this time.
Oh - I did ask for a CA-125 just for the heck of it. Had it checked twice and the number was the same and well into normal range.
