i just received my new ca-125 number that was taken last week before my 6th tx. and it has gone back up to 1,700. this is still a lot lower than where i started but it must mean that tx are no longer working. i have an appt. with gyn-onc tomorrow and i am praying that he will sit up surgery as soon as possible. i don't see any need to wait three or four weeks to let the last chemo tx work. i am already feeling well and my onc said my counts are always good so i don't see any need to wait. if my doctor doesn't want to do surgery then i will need a second opinion and need it soon. please keep me in your prayers for thur. and that i can have surgery soon
