question From: Sally (anonymous@obgyn.net) Sat, 29 Aug 1998 21:04:28 -0500 (CDT) Messages sorted by: [ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ] Next message: Patti Tessler, FNP: "Re: Bladder Infections" Previous message: anonymous@obgyn.net: "Re: How do others cope?" Diagnosed with overian cancer in April, 1998. At time of diagnosis, CA-125 was at 936. Immediately following surgery, CA-125 was at 235. Since then it has dropped to 113, 79, 60, 50, 40. Next week I will entered series 8 of chemo. Went to see another specialist for a second opinion on Moday f this past week. He claimed that the CA-125 should have dropped to a very low figure after a couple series of treatments. He claims that the slow though persistent drop suggests that perhaps the dosage has not been aggresive enough (not at 100% dosage- Toxal and Carboplatin--and not increased at any time along the way) or that cancer may be lurking elsewhere within me. He has also recommended that I seek another opinion perhaps through the oncology department at M. D. Anderson Clinic in Houston, Texas. What does the steady but slow drop in CA 125 count really suggest? Next message: Patti Tessler, FNP: "Re: Bladder Infections" Previous message: anonymous@obgyn.net: "Re: How do others cope?"
