what does a High Ca 19-9 Level Indicate? - Andre - 09-28-2024
Hi all! I recently took a blood test, and my Ca 19-9 level came back high. I looked it up and found it's related to cancer but not sure how it's related. Anyone can help?

Hey, a high Ca 19-9 is most likely associated with pancreatic cancer. However, it could also result from conditions like pancreatitis or liver disease. Do you have any related symptoms?

is right, it's mainly a marker for pancreatic cancer. However, it can also increase due to gastrointestinal and other cancers. It's best to consult with your doctor for accurate interpretations.
