CA-125 test came back at 672, anyone out there with similar or higher number?
On Dec 27, I went to the ER by ambulance because I thought I was having a heart attack. Severe pain in left arm. CT scan showed a large (13.3 cm) mass on my right ovary and smaller mass on the left one. Right side is complex (solid and fibrous), left was described as “cyst-like”. MRI confirmed same and said masses were most suspicious for serous cystadenocarcinoma. CA125 test results 672, normal is 0-35. Fortunately there was no evidence of spreading to lymph nodes or bones. Also no free fluid. I’m scheduled for a total hysterectomy on Feb 6. Of course the Doctor will not say with certainty if I have cancer or not. I’m thinking it has to be cancer. My question is, has anyone else had a similar situation with large masses and a high CA125 result and then find that they did not have cancer? BTW my arm pain resolved on its own.
