Yes, I've read dozens of stories and this was the case with many. I found after reading multiple experiences that the higher the number the more advanced. Less The number usually had meant 1-2 stage ovarian cancer, but that's what I've researched based on multiple multiple stories and if it is below, it didn't matter and these women still had ovarian in most. But yes, always ask your doctor, but it's usually a yes, when the numbers are high
❤
Thanks for watching
Mine came back 407 today. I suffer intermittent bloating pain, gas, etc. have tvt for my bladder and hysterectomy but ovaries left . Had total colectomy 2012.
Hope the video was informative.
Wish you well God bless you How are you now
I have it confirmed as primary peritoneal cancer. It is not linked to genes. I have malignant pleural thickening. This cancer is rare around 7 in 1 million.I have begun treatment with NIRAPARIB. Hoping this stops the cancer growing. I don’t have any tumours and lymph nodes not affected. Remains stage 4 and I will require further chemo when these tablets no longer halt the cancer. I feel privileged to be offered this tablets on the NHS
