Tumor markers keep dropping :)
Mom’s tumor markers have been steadily decreasing ever since she started on the new treatment, Erbitux and Irinotecan. Her CEA levels had been up past 1300 but the latest reading is 561. Yaay! We are hoping that is a good sign. But we are still anxious for the next scan……..as always! But she feels pretty good on this chemotherapy. Right now she is getting weekly treatments but if she keeps doing well then Dr. Kane said she may be able to spread out the treatments to every two weeks so Mom would be free to go on the truck with Jay here and there which she would really enjoy. I hope the tumor markers keep up this trend. She had been below 300 when she initially started treatment so we would at least like to get there. Keep killing that cancer! ![]()
