Can I ask how much yours fluctuated?
I was pleased that my baseline was 50 as I'd read about other patients levels in the thousands.
I was stunned this morning (before my second infusion today) to see the CA 125 increased to 90.
Maybe I'm chemo resistant?

@mtstack mine usually stay around 6 to 8. I had one readying that was 23. We didn't do any about it. That was while I was receiving chemotherapy and my level was checked two of three weeks. The next test it dropped to 7. Who knows what caused that spike

@mtstack That is very interesting. My CA 125 was not hire at diagnosis. it was 8. After my first chemotherapy it went up to 23. Then came back down the following week.
Mine has remained stable at 6 to 8. It's has not been an indicator for me.
