Hello Hender1509 and welcome to the forum.
I'm sorry for the worry your ca125 reading is causing but I'm glad you've connected with another member who is in a similar position and I hope their support is helping you at this challenging time.
As mentioned on the NHS website, a raised ca125 reading 'does not mean you definitely have cancer, as it can also be caused by other conditions such as endometriosis, fibroids and even pregnancy'.
I hope knowing this will help ease your worries slightly but if you'd like to discuss this with one of our cancer nurses, they're just a phone call away on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m.
Wishing you all the best for next week Hender1509.
Kind regards,
