The different TMs have different ranges of normal and they are not reliable for all of us. I've heard of women having numbers in the thousands. Ask your onc, or one of the nurses what the " normal" range is for the marker or markers you are tested for . But how you feel is a better indicator of how you are doing than the TM is. I've had mbc for over 17 years now, and my TMs have only been in the normal range for a few months.
