CA125 and a complex ovarian cyst

Hi! Just looking for anyone else going through the same thing. I have a complex cyst on my ovary found via an ultrasound and I'm waiting on CA125 blood test result. (taken yesterday) mostly just driving myself crazy imagining the worst. 

Anyone else in a similar boat? 

  • Hello , thiught I'd check in with you to see how you are, like yourself im on thia whirlwind journey at the minute to, also have an ovarian cyst  (septated) found on ultrasound after some postmenapausal bleeding and general bloating and chronic heartburn symptoms. Bloods taken came back with raised CA125 levels and was booked in for an urgent CT scan last Thursday. In the waiting game period now for the results its such a worrying time ! It is really hard to not worry im tryimg to keep myself busy and fortunately have a very supportive partner x Always happy to chat if you need to reach out and hope your not waiting long for your results, take care x

    Hey! So I got my ca125 back and it's normal, it's 7. There's a bit at the bottom of my result stating this is not a definitive no cancer thing  I have a laparoscopy booked for 13th of August so should get a definite answer then but I am hugely relieved by that result! Any idea when you will get your ct results?
