My CA125 numbers have gone from 1641 at diagnosis in Feb to 105 after my 4th treatment. I'm having my 5th treatment on Monday June 9th. Hoping for lower numbers after that one too. My oncologist wants the numbers less than 30 before she does a hysterectomy. The numbers are important because they tell me the chemo is working. CT scan couple weeks ago showed several lymph nodes and a mass had been resolved. I'll take the bone pain that comes with the WBC booster shots because it's working. 😊

I agree that it is irrelevant to compare our cancers as they are all different. And looking up life expectancy is just as meaningless because of our unique presentations. (But I imagine that most of us have done this!)
Best wishes as you complete your treatment.
