CA up by 90 points
My mother was diagnosed with ovarian cancer stage 3 C in the month of April 2018. She underwent six chemotherapy treatment cycles . initially her CA marker was 6800 .after five chemotherapy cycles it came down to 226. Now after 30 days of six chemotherapy ,it went up from 226 to 318. Though her diet appetite is good and she is having no problem whatsoever any physical.
Is this increase of 91 points is cause of concern ??
