Ca 19-9 is 2789. i've had breast cancer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
FOR ANY: DIAGNOSIS TO BE FINAL YOU WOULD NEED TISSUE BIOPSY AND LAB ANALYSIS. MARKERS ARE JUST THAT, MARKERS, TEND TO POINT IN CERTAIN DIRECTIONS, NOTHING DEFINITIVE. IT DOESN'T HAVE TO DO MUCH WITH BREAST BUT MOSTLY WITH PANCREAS OR OTHER GI CANCERS
