I'm so sorry for you. Can't they do chemo and radiation? I have an aggressive fast spreading cancer too...carcinosarcoma but it's endometrial cancer, stage 3C. I've had 4 treatments of chemo and immunotherapy. My CA125 numbers started at 1641 in Feb and went to 744 after 2nd treatment. After 3rd treatment they fell to 179. I'm having labwork today so I'll see how much more they've come down. I think I'd demand treatment. What could it possibly hurt?

@carol1024 This is good news on your CA125 numbers. I hope your lab work continues to show improvement.

@carol1024
Thank you for posting your CA125 numbers.
I had heard they could be in the thousands but didn't realize how much they can move after each cycle.
I only wish lab work had been done on me prior to surgery as I have no baseline except the CA125 I received last week before my first cycle.
