Great news on the CA125. CHEMO IS WORKING! My port was put in ( in the hospital) to enable the chemo treatments, as well as the blood draws! Maybe you donot mind the arm stabs but I did. They had trouble locating my veins. Remember to keep getting blood draws (CA125) even after you have recovered. They told me to expect a recurrence of cancer after my chemo was done. 75-90% probability, but maybe that was for ovarian cancer in the late stages only.
