@charlotte12 This must be very frightening for you however it's good that your surgery will happen so soon. Two weeks may seem like a long time to wait.

Did you have CT or MRI? Ultrasound? If yes for one of these what did the radiologist report?

I'm confused by the heading of your discussion as you wrote "Did anyone test high for CA125, with elevated value over 800? Your doctor said that the CA125 is not reliable for a cancer diagnostic so I'm wonder if that number is the value that was computed from. your CA125? It's difficult to accept, I know, but some tests are not very reliable. Here is what Mayo Clinic has about the CA125:

Did your doctor suggest what the mass might be? How are you feeling?

I first had an ultrasound, then an MRI. I hope I can keep the second surgery day, I'm still coughing too much, with greenish phlegm. In short the MRI shows a large, mixed, cystic/ solid mass
(about 12 x 12x15 cm) arising from the pelvis. The mass abuts the dorsal, distal uterine body/fundus and also involves the left adnexa which contains an oval cyst. The normal range for C125
is between 0- 30, mine is at 872. The doctor does not know what the mass is about or did
not want to speculate, till he can take a biopsy during surgery. I wished I did not have the cold,
my second week. I need to recover from it before the surgery.
