Hello, @clea! I had DLBCL, but it affected another part of my body. I'm looping in @loribmt. She may be able to add some insight.

Hi @clea. (And thank you @emmiet for tagging me! ☺️)
This is a bit out of my area of experience but I am aware that
CA-125 test is a ‘tool’ healthcare providers use to measure if cancer treatment is working. If the results are positive, it’s standard for the doctor to order more tests as a follow up, such as a trans vaginal ultrasound, for your mom since her lymphoma is in that area. It sounds like your mom’s doctor is being very thorough.
Was this information on the portal and you and your mom are waiting for a consultation appointment?
How’s your mom coping with the cancer and the treatments?
