CA19.9 tumour marker

[Doodlebug1]

I was diagnosed with PBC in February of this year. Biopsy staged it 3/4. When I had blood work done this week my CA19.9 tumour marker came back at 190. In March of this year it was 134. I see my Hepatologist on September 8th, but in the meantime I'm really worried. Has anyone else had a high reading without a cancer diagnosis?

I don't have an answer but I will keep you in my prayers.

I ve never been rested for this? I don't know the answer, but I found a web site that said it can give high readings without having cancer in people with liver disease but I don't know what the significance of this is look at. pancreaticcanceraction.org/... good luck let us know how you get on tomorrow
