Ca125 results

Hey lovelies, 

 

just quickly I am only 26 (and yes am writing on here with a very nervous heart ) 

I had a vaginal ultrasound as emergency on Tuesday - results aren't back yet but was told my left ovary didn't look 'healthy' 

 have symptoms, of back pain and lower left pains of abdomen, no period for 8 months & am bloated all the time. 
 

sorry long winded, I had bloods Friday a few tests are back including crp which is 'out of range' I know this can be anything from inflammation to cancer. 

does anybody know how long ca125 takes to come back? I'm worried sick,

my nan had ovarian cancer and it's all I can think about  

thank you xx 

  • my daughter had a cyst on her ovary they took it out xxxxovarycas well

  • Thank you, I've had cysts before and was always told 'cysts' but this she just said it didn't look healthy, 

    how long did your daughter wait for results? Did she have a ca125 blood test as well? Xxx

  • Hello there and thanks for posting

    I am sorry to hear you are undergoing some tests and can appreciate what a worry this must be for you.

    There can be variation in how quickly a CA125 blood test will come back but hopefully you shouldn't be waiting very long.

    As difficult as it must be for you try not to over think things too much until you have all the information from the doctors about what it going on.

    Ovarian cancer at your age is extremely rare and also do bear in mind even if the CA125 is raised there are many other reasons for this other than cancer.

    Sit tight for now and try and keep yourself busy and your mind on other things if you can until you have a plan of what needs to happen next.

    Do get back in touch if you need to or you are welcome to call us on 0808 800 4040 if you prefer to talk over the phone. We're here Monday-Friday 9-5.

    All the best
