  • Hello Buffey73

    I was diagnosed and treated for PPC in September 2010.

    I've been well since then, but continued to have CA125 checks each year.

    My levels have been rising over the past two years and a recent scan has confirmed a recurrence.

    I continue to feel well and am active.

    My oncologist feels further surgery whist I am feeling well is not desirable, so I have agreed to wait and monitor until I feel unwell.

    At diagnosis I was told life expectancy was two years, I'm still here, living a normal life almost 20 years later!

    I hope your outcome is as good as mine xx

  • Well that's great news for you 20 yrs  if that's the case that means I'd be 90 ,can go with that lol.Looked a bit bleakfor me at the begining but after 3 CHEMO f eelig a lot better they've also told me I haveBRACA 2.Hope everything comes out 100% for you .
