Hi, dear.
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. CA 125 is the marker of ovarian cancer. If it is raised up to 1300 it means you have recurrent ovarian cancer or some metastatic lesion from ovarian cancer. You should go for ct scan abdomen to know the spread of cancer then you should take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic.
Wish you a very good health.
