Ovarian cancer scare

I have been having pelvic discomfort and pain whe passing urine on and off.  Went to GP 3 months ago and was told it was diverticulitis although I have never had bowel problems.  No examination was carried out.  I went back to different GP a week ago and she examined me and said she would do blood tests.  The CA test came back 618. and she said we can assume it is cervical cancer unless we hear otherwise.  My sister died of ovarian cancer a few years ago.  I have got an urgent appointment with gynaecologist Monday this week. Really worried.  Had surgery for breast cancer less than a year ago but had mammogram done recently and it came back clear.  

  • Flo,

    your gp in my opinion should not have stated that you have it just by the ca125 result as inflammation in the areas caused by other things can make the numbers rise. Obviously with your sister and your symptoms it's worrying put please try not to worry until you know for certain.
