Chemo visit 4 (Part 2)

Posted by admin on 1/9/11

Sorry...in my haste to get the details down I forgot to mention my CEA (Carcino Embryonic Antigen) levels have dropped.

When you are in your mothers womb the levels are high and as soon as you are born the levels drop to what the profession calls normal which is 0 - 2.5.

In between my operation to remove the bowel cancer and the secondary cancer being discovered, the blood test result showed the level to be with 'normal' levels at 1.1.

When I was diagnosed with secondary inoperable cancer the level had jumped to 5+ and now the level is standing at 3+ so dropped by 2 whole points.

The consultant didn't seem to think the change in level was significant and said that there are loads of other factors to be taken into consideration, he did say in some patients the level can be in hundreds if not thousands and they are okay.

However I am taking everything I can get as a positive and significant and so should all you supporters out there.

As I have said, if the Avastin can kick start my immune system then I can also do this in other ways.

Continue the prayer, the reiki, the good wishes and positive thoughts as this will NOT finish me.

Much Love
