I had them first done in 2011 after I had breast cancer and had a mastectomy. I have had them done 3 times since and my markers have gone from 18 to 24. My GP did not know if it meant cancer or not. I saw my surgeon for my check up the other week and asked him did it mean the cancer was back. Did not know and said markers are not always a good indication. I see my Onc in November and I will have another lot of blood tests before I see her and will see what she says.
I worried myself each time they went up. Many things can cause it to go up , not related to cancer. I am not going to do my head in about it will just wait and see. No use getting all stressed when it may be nothing.
I was told they cause more worry than good.
Keep us informed.
