Yes. I ditto what all have said. Resistance to drugs happens differently for all of us but rising CA19-9, if a trend, is always a reason to scan.
Be sure to ask your doctor about clinical trial drugs as well.
We’re you on the folfuri maintenance called Xeloda?

According to reports, the maintenance is 5FU/leucovorin.

We've talked to, or left messages with oncology, radiation oncology, and our navigator so I'm sure the oncologist will get some messages when he returns next Monday.

Thank you for your response.
