Guest guest Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 Liz,Thanks for this email.I need to know if I do have PSC.. ..When were you last up at Mayo.?.I know we talked by phone a few years ago..Hugs, in Georgia from Ohio I had CC and it was detected only through a biopsy during surgery. I never had elevated CA-19-9 and my ERCP brushings always came back negative for CC. It just so happened that the stent they put in my bile duct kept getting clogged and that is why I went to the Mayo. I don't think that the CA-19-9 test is all that great in diagnosing CC. If you are being followed by an experienced PSC doctor they will be looking for CC, and just like any other cancer if it is caught early enough it can be treated.
