CA19.9 Raise.
Hi when my mother was giving blood for her routine diabetes checkup with one of the private lab, they have offered 90+ tests for 2000 rs and asked me to take it and I have opted for it. The results said I have ca19.9 as 108 which triggered my fear and I have got my CT, MRI, endoscopy and ultrasound done and all the results said pancreas is normal. MRI and US Findings were grade 1 fatty liver, Small gallbladder polyp. No demonstrable focal lesions in the pancreases on sonography to the extent visualised. Polycystic Ovaries. EUS Findings: Pancreas: Normal head, uncinate, body and tail no focal lesions, MPD appears normal. Liver appears fatty.

CT scan impression : Fatty liver Bilateral polycystic ovaries Pancreases is normal in size contour and attenuations values. No evidence of focal mass lesion/ pancreatic duct dilatation.No peripancreatic fluid collection
