I have been scheduled for a needle biopsy (under the CT scanner) next Wed to determine if this mass is a tumor or an infection from the diverticulitis. The CA125 is now up to 290 which could be caused by either. Hopefully, now we will have an answer on what to treat. The local oncologist is on top of it. Thanks for the prayers. Saundra

HUGS & PRAYERS!
Saundra:
Sure wish you could get this done sooner, so you can put your mind at ease. Nonetheless, I'm glad they are moving forward to check this out. You're right, the rise in CA125 could be caused by either situation. I'll be praying for a painless biopsy and that the outcome is what you are hoping for. We'll be waiting to hear!
Lots of Hugs & Prayers!
