Trying To Diagnose

I have had a series of blood work and urine tests done over the past month. They have tested for every bacterial infection and I did a week on antibiotics to make sure with no success. I have pelvic pain and pressure, very irregular period, frequent felling to urinate and some rectal pain. My dr wants to do a laproscopy next week I believe to check for endometriosis. The next step I believe would to do further testing for cancer. I had a CA-125 test done and it came back 2. Doesn't that ensure no gynecologic cancer? Any help / info would be appreciated.

Ask your Doctor to do an "Antimalignan Antibody Serum"(AMAS)test. This test will check for any cancer any where in your body and it is 96+% accurate.

You can search for "AMAS Test" with your web browser to get complete information about it.

hi hope this will help ask if it is interstitial cystitis you can look up on web.

Tswag: I am sorry that you are going through all of these medical tests and I am sure that they will find the culprit, however I had to reply because the CA-125 is a marker for ovarian cancer and not necessarily full-proof to determine if a growth on the ovary is cancerous. It is not considered a marker for Uterine cancer or cervical cancer. Please do not think that you have a gynological cancer until you have a biopsy or a D&C, if those are tests that your doctor recommends. I hope that your doctors can find the problem shortly and I am sure that you will be on your way to a good recovery.

The symptoms you have described sound very similar to what my wife experienced prior to being diagnosed with interstitial cystitis. I would certainly look into ruling this out before going thru a bunch of tests for cancer.

Hi, I was having a problem responding to this message and posted a new message on the board...anyway...it sounds like Endometriosis or Adnomiosis. I had heavy, heavy periods, pelvic pain, tailbone pain, frequent urination, sometimes pain in thighs. Ask for a internal ultrasound. Good luck..Ty
