Well, my doctor visit yesterday proved to be successful AND hopeful. My CA125 has stablized these last two months at 10 (was 8 during my 6 rounds of chemo). The HIDA scan showed NO gall stones. The CT scan showed NO blood clot in the gonadal vein and NO EVIDENCE OF DISEASE! I must admit I still have a few aches and pains that will always haunt me, but as I mentioned to Collins, it just means I need to continue to be aware of my body, changes, issues, etc. I will go in February for another CT and follow-up with the oncologist then. I will continue monthly CA125 tests, and as all of you know that means I'll be holding my breath every month till I get those results.

Oh well, I certainly thank the Lord for His mercies yesterday and always. I continue to pray for all of you and ask that no matter what we must endure that He will be our strength and peace in EVERYTHING.

H-U-G-S.

    Monika, congratulations on such wonderful news! I can only imagine how nervous you were about all of your tests, and then to get all good news and NED!!!! My first CA-125 after going off chemo is coming up soon, and I'm already very nervous, but trying not to think about it too much. I couldn't be happier for you! Your friend, MM

    It is so good to hear that you are doing so well. I don't think we ever get over the fear of the CA125 results...after 6 years I still get jittery waiting for that number. Good luck Monika! Stay well.
