Hello @sandyjr,

I can tell that you are concerned about the increase in CA 27.29 as it might relate to the increase in your weight. That is certainly understandable as well as wise. While I've never had breast cancer myself, I did a little research. Listed below is an article from the American Cancer's website about how to lower your risk for breast cancer progressing. As you read this article you will see that maintaining a healthy weight is one of those factors. Here is the link, https://www.cancer.org/cancer/breast-cancer/living-as-a-breast-cancer-survivor/can-i-lower-my-risk-of-breast-cancer-progressing-or-coming-back.html/ I hope that other breast cancer survivors on Connect are able to share with you about your question as well.

If I may ask, have you talked with your oncologist about this increase in your CA 27.29?

I will be having my telephone appointment with him tomorrow and that is one of my questions for him. Thanks for the info.
