Dear friend had colon cancer two years ago. He was a stage 4 and had several lymphs affected. Now, he has lesions on bones of shoulder, hip, ribs, spine. He is going to go thru more tests tomorrow. Markers were 70. Can someone explain that number? He wouldn't ask the doctor what that meant. He is 74 years old. Has pain in hip to the point he can't walk. This happened in a two day period. Now, he using a walker. Doesn't sound good does it.
