Mum passed from ovarian cancer in 2005.
June 2022 had CA125 done which was 31 followed by scan which showed a cyst on right ovary but all normal however, GP requested repeat CA125 in 6 months.
January 2023 CA125 risen to 39
March 2023 scan showed right ovarian cyst had become haemorrhagic
May 2023 repeat scan. Cyst still haemorrhagic. CA125 repeated & risen to 87.
August 2023 - laparoscopic surgery - right ovarian cyst removed, right ovary removed, right fallopian tube removed
25/10/23 CA125 blood test repeated and returned to within normal range - 23
That brings us to today. Had repeat CA125 Wednesday and GP called me this morning to say it’s risen again to 113 so she’s putting me on the urgent suspected cancer list for a scan.
She said it could just be a cyst on the left ovary so I’m keeping everything crossed this is what it is.
Has anyone experienced similar? I’m genuinely shocked as I thought it would remain around 23 but to have risen again has taken me by surprise.
