Increase of Tumor Markers Within Normal Range

Has anyone had experience with tumor markers increasing within the normal range? Since completing treatment I had been staying in the 13-14 range on the CA 15-3 since completing treatment. I just had it increase to 19.6. I know that's a "normal" range, but it is still concerning to me. Thank you all - what a great community.

    screech,

    Hi! I was just coming here to ask the same so maybe we can both get some answers. Mine 15-3 usually is less than 8 and has been that way for two plus years. My new draw showed 15. Normal range, but doubled in 6 months along with watching lung nodes. I hope you get some answers on this to ease your mind
