I'm adding this post as a partner of someone who has been suffering with a large ovarian cyst and received a raised ca125 result and also to offer some words of solace to other sufferers. 

Like most, after receiving all the test results, we feared the worst, it's hard not to with the internet...looking at how long the expectancy was, what next etc etc....and also how do we explain to our young son. 

This forum was a great help and offered lots of help and for that I'm eternally thankful. 

Within a month of the raised ca125 levels, CT scan and MRI scan done, and a few tellings off from professionals for believing everything we read on the internet, endometriosis diagnosed and hysterectomy done and 12cm diameter cyst removed. 

Lots of people in a similar position to us and just want to say to those people, stay positive, stay strong, and as difficult as it is, try not to believe everything from Dr Google. 

A massive thanks to this forum and all the brave people who shared their experiences, helped the both of us through some very dark times
