CA125 raised

Hi just wanting any body with similar stories as i am worried sick , i am 26 years old and had been on my period for 22 weeks constantly with out a break i then had a 9 day break at which point i thought i may be pregnant all tests were negative , then i had a huge bleed blood clots the size of my hand and lost a lot of blood then did another prgenancy test which gave me a very clear positibe  - had already had a normal ultrasound scan a few weeks before hand - i ended up been admitted on to gynaey at hospital due to this blood loss etc and a CA125 was done my level was 86 but no HCG in my blood so they said it must of been a flase positive ?!!! - they did another emergency scan the next day which again was all clear. I have since stopped bleeding again we are around the two week mark of no bleeding - Gyaney then asked me to have repeated of CA125 which i got the reults back for today at level 75 still high and abnormal - i have constant bloating period pains back pains etc my doctor is calling me this afternoon and his written to gynaey urgently to ask where we go next. the first result of 86 was during a heavy bleed the second of 75 was no bleeding at all . I have only had my first smear done last week so now waiting for them results but i am so worried about all this .

 

has any one else had similar experiences ?

 

Thanks

  • Poor you carolinje1711 it sounds like you are going through a lot at the moment and that bleeding must have been quite frightening for you. It does sound like you are in good hands though and they are doing all the right tests. Have you had the phone call from your doctor and what did she/he say? 

    It's good that your doctor has also referred you to see the gynaecologist urgently and hopefully you won't have to wait too long for the appointment. Fingers crossed too for good results after your first smear test.

    I hope you will also hear from others here who have had similar experiences. 

    Best wishes,
