@cancerback It is good news that your last CT in April showed that the cancer has improved and nothing new showed up. Each time I settle down between these cancer surveillance appointments. Then as the next appointment gets closer I get more anxious especially about the CT.

How are you feeling today? Have you found ways to cope with all of this?

Hi,
I'm not feeling very good about my prognosis as I got results from CA-125 test yesterday and it has gone up again. My oncologist last summer told me I probably had 3 years tops and I fear she's right. If my cancer has progressed or metastasized to a different site, I will have to decide whether to go back to Tivdak and have even worse PN or switch to palliative care. As I have just turned 80, I'm more fortunate than so many women with this kind of cancer who have died young and, in some cases, left young children behind,
