    Hootie, for some women, the

    Hootie, for some women, the CA125 number is not a good indication of anything.  Infections, etc...can cause it to increase.  I think they will tell you that your numbers are still in the "normal" range.  (The card my gyn onc's office sends me indicate anything between 0 - 30 is normal) I think all of us worry about 'what if', it is completely understandable, maybe you can call and talk to someone.  Can you call the doctor's office and talk to someone?  I am sure they understand. 

    Please let us know how you are doing.
