My CEA level is at 297.0. It began in April after my surgery to remove colon cancer. I have Stage 4 with mets to the live. At that point the CEA was 69.7. It went from that in April, 2022 to 118.5 in November, 2022. Then it jumped to 175.3 in December 6th and December 27 it took a small dive down to 167.4. This week it has jumped to 297.0. I am freaking out! I noticed in my chart that I have CT scan of chest and CT scan of abdomen and pelvic for Feb 20th. I am praying this does not mean there is more cancer. Am I freaking out for no reason? Is this normal? I am currently in chemo treatments, this week made my 18th infusion. I go back tomorrow to get the pump taken off and then three weeks later more chemo. I was getting it every two weeks, but apparently the 5FU has some sort of back order going on and I am now going in every 3 weeks. This is driving me insane!
