I finished treatment in September last year, I don’t remember having any tests for blood cancer markers. Did your oncologist suggest these tests and how often do you have the test. If you are concerned definitely call up the oncologist, they might be able to give you more information.
Yes I have a few different ones each time I see him. thanks Cheryl xx - Hi @ChezaH

I believe anything under 30 is considered ‘normal’ ... but from 31 to 45 may ALSO be ‘fairly normal’ ...
The fact that it is going down has to be a good sign, I am thinking .... all the best for your Onc appt xx
