Sorry I missed this post the other day, Maggie.
Hi! Maggie!!!!
Thanks for asking. I have been NED for a year and 3 months. Last chemo was Feb/2010 Had a scare a couple of weeks ago. CA 125 has been hovering around 19-22 range. Jumped to 41. Doctor ordered CAT scans and everything looks fine. They are monitoring it and I have my next check-up at the end of August.

I have come to the conclusion that I was really stressed over this whole CA 125 thing. According to the nurse where I am being treated. They changed the CA 125 test since the last time I had it tested. She said a lot of patients had slight rise. What to think??? Makes me nuts. I have to just let it all go sometimes.

Nice thing is I spent a couple days in Houston at MD Anderson to get the tests done. Attended yoga classes they hold daily. Also had a wonderful gourmet lunch there. Pampered myself a little. It was nice. I work 12 hr days and it is rare for me to have time off. I have my own business. Loved the yoga. I have never tried it.

I have been reading your posts. Hope you are doing well, my friend. Know you have had some bumps lately. Praying for good things to happen for you.
