@mse, you may wish to follow the Colorectal Cancer Support Group here: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/colorectal-cancer/
What did you learn from the biopsy? How are you doing?
When I was offered Signatera testing I was told from the beginning that a negative result is not definitive-a positive result is.
My oncologist does tumor marker CA19-9 every two weeks. I understand it is less expensive than Signatera. In my case, the TM tracks the disease quite well. If TM is in normal state, that is when I “backfill” with Signatera. Either way, hopefully you will have a PET soon to confirm the liver activity. If the tumors are close together, ask about Y-90 procedure post chemo
