Is health care in the US so fucked up that you have to resort to Yahoo! Answers to get information about colon cancer? Sorry, but this sounds like something your oncologist should have talked to you about when you were given the test results (assuming this is for you, or someone close to you).
From the National Cancer Institute’s website:
1) Tumor markers are substances that can be found in abnormal amounts in the blood, urine, or tissues of some patients with cancer (see Question 1).
2) Different tumor markers are found in different types of cancer (see Question 1).
3) Tumor markers may be used to help diagnose cancer, predict a patient’s response to particular therapies, check a patient’s response to treatment, or determine if cancer has returned (see Questions 3 and 4).
4) In general, tumor markers cannot be used alone to diagnose cancer; they must be combined with other tests (see Question 3).
If you have an elevated blood marker, that might mean that the cancer has returned. Other tests should be preformed in conjunction with the blood marker test to make sure.
Changing your name does not change the fact that you have asked this question several times. I have answered you and Spreedog who is an oncologist has answered you – read them they are not going to change either.
