Tumour Marker up!!!!
I had a blood test last Saturday in readiness for my 1st anniversary checks and scans. I got a call back yesterday to visit my GP. I tried to be positive l and hope he just wanted to discuss my vita...

Good morning everyone, just an update. I had the pelvic ultrasound and bone density scan. No call back for the PU so I am going to assume all is OK there but I will follow up with my GP.
My bone density has gone backwards a smidge but when I saw my surgeon last week he wasn't too concerned. Another scan in 12 months but I need to start jogging/running as opposed to all the walking I do. He also wasn't overly worried about the tumour marker. I'll have another blood test in 3 months to compare but my levels may naturally run high. Breathing a bit easier!!!
What did come up again was ovary removal so I'm seriously considering having this done early in the NY while my husband is on school hols.
I've read a lot of posts about it so am not concerned, just worried about the surgery itself. I've had a lot of abdominal surgery and keyhole may be hard if there is internal scarring.
Anyway, I have the names of some good surgeons so I'm sure they must have operated on worse than me.
Hope it is a lovely weekend wherever you are and that you are all going OK. Jane xx
