Hi all,
I saw my lovely consultant today for my 3 monthly check. My CA125 has risen from 19 (which was right after finishing chemo), to 71. I have been feeling quite well, apart from muscle pain in my legs, a legacy from the Taxol, but was prepared for a rise, such is the nature of this disease.
My consultant was going to request a scan for me at the end of June, whether the CA125 had risen or not. This is because I am on "active surveillance" which I find very reassuring. I am quite content with the situation at the moment because I am feeling well and the results could have been much worse.
So, on we go, loving the sunshine, enjoying life and looking forward to my youngest son's wedding in August.
Take care and feel well,
Love lizzie xx
