CA125 Level - is 27 high?

Hi all, I have been told I have an enlarged uterus and what looks to be a hemorrhagic cyst on my ovary. I've had the symptoms for ovarian cancer (pain, bleeding, fatigue, frequent urinating etc.) but have had a CA125 result come back as 27 which I am told is ok. 
 

My doctor has booked my in for another scan to monitor what she believes to be a cyst but I wanted to ask whether other people had had a reading of 27 and although it's not over the 35 mark, is this still higher than most? 
 

thank you in advance :) 

  • Hi Laura,

     

    I have also read (in many different websites as I can't seem to stop googling ) that 35 is the number so 27 sounds like you don't need to worry too much. I had my results back today and mine are borderline (I stupidly didn't ask for a number) and I have a scan booked for 2 weeks time. It's all very worrying isn't it? I have my fingers crossed for you x
