Hi, am new to this site. Finished my first round of chemo - carbo/cisplatin/taxol in August and wound up with a CA 125 of 27 Have just had new test run at MDA in Houston and it is up to 92. Will have CT scan next week. Feeling great and no symtoms. Was examined last week and found no problems in examination. Am starting to go into panic mode and feel foolish about it.

I did pretty much the same
I did pretty much the same thing: finished up carbo/taxol in June, clear scan in July, with a CA-125 of 21. Then in Sept it was up to 49, then 314 by October. So now I'm on Gemzar and it's working great. I have felt fine, no sypmtoms and had 2 clear scans. It's like the first round didn't quite get it, so we're going after it again. It's just being stubborn!
