  • Hey Marmiteontoast, 

    I just wanted to check in on you and see how you are as you mentioned you were having your CA125 blood test the other day.

    I hope everything went o.k but if you'd like to speak to someone about what you're going through, you can give our cancer nurses a call 0808 800 4040. Their helpline is open Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m and they will do all they can to address your questions and concerns and support you whilst you wait.

    Hopefully some of our members will stop by soon to share their experiences and advice but in the meantime, we're sending you all our support Marmiteontoast and will have our fingers crossed you will not be diagnosed with ovarian cancer.

    Kind regards,
