Hi Amy
I chatted with my Oncologist re the TM's and she said they are not a reliable guide for everyone but she is happy to track mine. She wasn't sure mine had ever been elevated and as I'm on a clinical trial I have a CT every six weeks so I am pretty intensely monitored anyway. I am going to get them done (they had trouble with getting my port to bleed yesterday) next week and then we can follow what they do - may be useful in the future.
I think it is a good sign that yours are reduced - do you know which ones they do? (there seem to be a couple of different ones).
