@auntieoakley I've had 3 treatments of enhurtu.. my ca15-3 has gone up..is this normal? Just did scans . See Dr Tues.. started with breast stage 3 in 2015, spread to bones in 2023 and now it's in my bone marrow in 2025.. should I be worried? Or do the numbers fluctuate with each treatment?

@butterfly3 I wish I could tell you directly, I can really only tell you what happened with me. The broad trends with cancer markers did show the trends in my cancer, Fluctuations in the numbers were pretty normal and created so much anxiety in me, that my doctor finally quit telling me. Now we only talk about confirmation tests.
Living with advanced cancer is a difficult thing. I try to remember to live my best today and let tomorrow be for tomorrow.
I know you are seeing your doctor on Tuesday, will you come back and let me know how you are feeling? 💕
