Hiya just thought I would stop by and let you all know my amazing news.

Been to see my Oncologist today for my CA 125 results. Last time the numbers were 991 and todsay it was 327 :) I could not believe it so my oncologist printed them out for me to see it in writing lol. This was my 3rd result and the numbers have dropped each time by 600. So now they are 327 will they drop another 600 after my next one ha ha lol. I have another 3 treatments and I am so hopeful that I may reach double figures by the time I am done.

This chemo - Topotecan is really doing its job for me. Thank goodness for chemotherapy - it is a magic drug for me.

Lots of love Tina xxxx

    Hi Tina
    That is fantastic
    Hi Tina
    That is fantastic news. A friend has just started Topotecan and told her about your results as the normal chemo does not seem to work for her.

    Great!
    Well, i am super happy for you. I was telling my mom at lunch on Friday that if the carbo/taxol stops working there are plenty of drugs they can try. I am sure i will be asking the doc about this one.
