I have been a little hesitant to post my last CA-125 number... I found out the day after my January appointment that my CA-125 number had jumped up to 18. Now that is not a huge jump but it has been concerning to me. When I was on the Avastin, my CA-125 number was low and then it gradually started climbing back up until it passed the normal level of 35 and then double that to the point that I was kicked off of that study drug.

I am happy to report though that I got my lab results back for yesterday's appointment and my number has dropped back down to 14! Yea! I think my doctor was a little concerned as well because we didn't discuss it at yesterday's appointment at all but she emailed me as soon as she got the results back and let me know that it had dropped back down. It is a little nerve wracking at times waiting for that test result to come back.
