I am in stage 4 metstatic breast cancer . I was on Famara which achieved its job by ggggetting the tumor maker down from 117 to 34!! Wonderful. Today my Tumor Marker is at 1100 which sounds crazy to me. The Recent CT contradicts because hte bone scan is the same the liver is somewhat higher. I am going in for another blood test The nurse sain on the phone they are not sure why it has reached 1100? Any comments? I would love to hear from someone who had this sam experience and can explain

Thank you,

Susan

Thank you Becky I believe the name is Antigen 27-29

Can you explain to me about blood clots too much and their ramifications? I was on Famara Estogen Inhibitor today starded another harmone inhibitor- Arominson

Thank you and hope the labs made a mistake Going back Sept. 13th to the lab to take my blood again
