Symptoms Of Ovarian Cancer. Tired,pelvic Pressure, Irregular Bleeding,constipation. Problems Due To Fibroids?

Hi, I have symptoms of ovarian cancer and an elevated CA125 of 129. I do have a fibroid which I know can cause elevated CA125 levels. I'm very tired, have pelvic pressure, indigestion, irregular bleeding, constipation etc...I am awaiting CT scan results. Could these symptoms and CA125 level be due to fibroids. I do have ulcerative colitis but its not active at the moment. I also had a UTI when the blood test was taken. Thanks, Kim

Hello
thanks for your query.
All the symptoms you describe can be due to fibroids most definitely.
CA 125 also can be elevated by fibroids.
Hence, the judgement depends on your imaging results.
Please wait till you have the ultrasound / CT scan results, as that will confirm your diagnosis.
Do not worry till then.
All the best.
