CA-19-9 rising

[Davidben83]

Hi

My father has had Gemacatabine for the past four months following a Whipple Procedure. His CA19-9 reading seemed to have stablised at around 50 but suddenly jumped to 105 one week and then was 107 the following. I am fearing re-occurence. Is that the most likely reason for this?

Thanks

David

Probably, but 107 is a b***** good reading
