Hi,
A CA 19-9 level of <40 U/mL is considered normal. How ever your value of 89.1 is only slightly elevated and may not have any significance.
Do you have any symptoms that relate to thr GIT/pancreas?
If so then abnormal levels will be co-related to that and conclusions made. By abnormal it would mean counts in several hundreds or thousands.
