Lab values have plummeted. Unlike the stock market, for us, the slide in values is good news!
Calcitonin (thyroid cancer marker) is down 24% on Oct 15 vs the prior labwork of September 26. The CEA (carcineoembryonic antigen) is down 37% for the same period. (See more complete description of these tests in blog of April 27, 2007.) Both markers are now four-digit numbers, below the 10,000 mark, whereas previously the Calcitonin was bouncing between 15,000 and 22,000, and the CEA hovering around 10,000. This is an exciting development!
As we wait to see future results, I’m sure you can understand why persons with cancer become numbers-obsessed.
More results as we return from Charleston in about 12 days.
