Ovarian Cancer?

Hi. Just looking for similar experiences. I had surgery back in September where they found 1 large dermoid cyst and 1 small endometriosis cyst. Didn't think it was a big deal tbh. Anyways fast forward I get a call from the hospital saying they need to see me urgently for a transvaginal scan and are annoyed I wasn't bought in sooner. I go for the scan and leave there. Within 3 hours the consultant rang and said he's sending me for 2 blood tests. 1 for CA 125 and one for HCG tumour marker. He sends me the forms out straight away and is written on there to have done urgently. So I have been for the blood tests yesterday and he tells me to ring as soon as I'm done so he can chase them up. He hasn't mentioned the word cancer as such but should I be worried? 

  • I've had these tests and the form was marked urgent but no one chased them up. I've not had or been offered surgery as of yet. I'm still waiting on results 2 weeks later from the blood tests and the MRI I had. I wouldn't infer much from comparing our situations as they're quite different. However, if something wasn't done before that should have been they'd likely try to fast track you. Did they check your CA125 level when your previous cysts were found? I hope you're okay, it's a worrying situation when they investigate these things but they do have to rule things out.
