No they don't but I've got that CEA level so close to normal I hate to
give up just yet. Unlike every doctor I've talked to I still believ in
miracles and that there is a chance I can beat this monster. But if my
marrow gives up I can't fight anymore. As far as pain that has been
relatively low up until now with the neumega shots.. I don't know how
you guys take somethng that I spend a great deal of tie writing and
call one or two sentances. an answer. Is there any way/test to now if
the marrow situation is temporaary or more of a permnant issue. If I
could get this CEA down to 2-2 1/2 for just a couple of months I' feel
comfortable taing a longer break from chemo.
