My CA 125 was 8985 (ish) after debulking and came down to 14 during chemo. I am almost 3 months since ending chemo. My ca 125 is now 19. Is this indicitive of a return of the disease? My doctor presented it as if there is a time period after chemo when I haven’t even gotten to my actual baseline ca 125 (what is normal for me)…How long would that be. I’m terrified all the time but this little creeping number has me nervous even though the nurse says it is insignifigant.
