Although a high CEA is not specific, but it may denote that the cancer that had been removed along with your pancreas, has come back. That could be the reason for your bone pains and dizziness. I suggest you get a contrast enhanced CT scan of the abdomen and a bone scan. That will confirm or refute the suspicion. CEA alone is not enough to diagnose recurrence.
