CA 15-3 and CEA

ilke

The experiences about these two values not to cause trouble in the dreams .... I had an experience with low Ca 15-3 (as 22.1 as my regular value about 4 years) and high CEA (6.15 as my irregular value about 4 years ) . Normally my CEA has been changed between 2.5-3.5 for four years. My onc has followed my CEA after a month but it is still 6.18 whereas ca 15-3 is 22.9 as very normal. Now, PET-CT is requested tomorrow due to CEA increase. Because, all my bottom and breast ultrasounds are normal, mamography is normal, colonoscopy is normal, blood tests are normal including liver and thyroids ....And i am afraid alot.

good luck with the scans, I'm glad they're looking into it.
