Ca125 Test

Hi

Thanks for letting me join. 

Im 53 and recently had two urine tests one tested positive for UTi but after being sent to labs came back normal. The second after the antibiotics has got micro blood. I was already booked in for an ultrasound as I have gallstones and fibroids. But last night the doctor rang to say I have to do a FIT test and a CA125 test for all cancers. 

In absolute panic mode as I've never had these blood tests and FIt tests before. The doctors said she would just like a full MOT. But she knew I suffer from health anxiety. 

Any advice would be very grateful 

  • Hi KH49,

    Welcome to Cancer Chat. I can understand this is concerning, but it is good to hear that the doctor is being thorough. This will give you answers and hopefully some reassurance and peace of mind.

    I hope it's not too long to wait for those tests and any results to follow.

    In the meantime, hopefully you'll get some more replies here soon.

    Wishing you all the best,
