Lisa O Posted June 29, 2004 Share Posted June 29, 2004 Three months ago, I got results of an elevated CA125 and some suspicious cysts on my ovaries. My oncologists (thoracic and gynecologic) both believe it can be related to the lung cancer but cannot rule out ovarian metastasis or primary cancer. I have just repeated the CA125 and ultrasound but will not have the results till Friday. I am nervous even though I know that there is probably little likelihood of yet another cancer. I HATE WAITING! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jana_W Posted June 29, 2004 Share Posted June 29, 2004 Hi Lisa Waiting is AWFUL!!!! But I am thinking of you and wishing you only good results. Jana xxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowflake Posted June 29, 2004 Share Posted June 29, 2004 I HATE waiting, too! I don't know what's worse, those darn tests or the waiting...well, that's not EXACTLY true...at the time of the test, they're worse, but afterward, the waiting is the worst... Hope it's all a crappy read from what's already going on! See you in July! Becky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chloesmom Posted June 29, 2004 Share Posted June 29, 2004 Waiting is the absolute worst. Try to focus on the unlikeliness of another cancer.......I'm with you girl. Keep us posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bean_si (Not Active) Posted June 29, 2004 Share Posted June 29, 2004 Yeah, waiting is a big time worry inducer. Let's hope the reading was off. Praying for you big time. Cat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KatieB Posted June 29, 2004 Share Posted June 29, 2004 My Gyno always warns of false elevations in the CA125. I always insist on the test, and he always cautions me about the high level on inaccuracy. I am hoping in this case he was right on and your results were ALL false reads. I'm sending prayers for a peaceful week and POSITIVE good results on Friday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ginnyde Posted June 29, 2004 Share Posted June 29, 2004 Waiting is just awful. But I will pray that the wait was worth it when on Friday the dr. says, "Lisa, boy do I have good news for you." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lisa O Posted July 3, 2004 Author Share Posted July 3, 2004 I cannot thank everyone enough for your support and well wishes. My CA125 went down. There is still a cyst on the ovary and now there is a cyst in the uterus but no real worry that those are malignant. The gynecologic oncologist mentioned that they may be due to the Iressa but said that there are not many studies on the longer usage of Iressa in woman my age. We are still going to follow them but I am not worried about them. Thanks again, from the bottom of my heart for the prayers and good thoughts.
