Merry Christmas Astro,
I hope you have had the test again and the numbers came back in the normal range (0-35)? I am sure your doctor told you that this is a screening for ovarian cancer, but not always a reliable one. I was diagnoised with OVCA, stage 111 in September of 2003 and the highest my CA-125 got was 151 - my tumors totaled 11 x 16 cm - pretty big. Anyhow, the screening I have received every 3-4 months since then is a CT scan and blood work. All has been clear of disease (well, until now, we are monitoring a lung nodule and I will be having a PET scan New Year's eve morning to try to rule out malignancy). My CA-125 has been at less than 2 since February 2004. You should try to keep a close watch for other symptoms because I have read the Ultrasound tests are less than reliable compared to a CT or PET scan. You can check websites like ovarian.org where you can see a list of symptoms. I had severe indigestion/heartburn and leg cramps in odd muscles, along with the usual symptoms.
Well, I pray you are in good health, and remain watchful. Enjoy the holidays with family and friends! Sincerely, Joan Marie
