A member asked:
My cea test was a 3. what should i do? i had colon cancer in 1997?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
CEA of 3: is in normal range. IF you have been getting regular checkups yearly and colonoscopies, you don't need to do anything more. Just follow the recommendations for your follow ups and colonoscopies provided by your Oncologist/Colorectal surgeon/gastroenterologist.
