What Is A Tumor Marker Result Mean Or CA 125?

hello, I live in a small town that is mostly a farming community. I started off with a lumpectomy in July of 2012, days later I developed mondors disease then months later I had a hysterectomy do to a 2 pound mass that caused pain and abnormal bleeding. My periods would last up to 2 weeks. Needless to say I had aniemia. A doctor from San Diego, cancer specialist stated I should be checked for lymphoma. I recently had a polyp removed shortly after my hysterectomy. anyway the reports stated that it was bening, which sounds wonderful! but I don t feel like myself. I feel that the doctors may have missed something but I don t know where to start! My body is screaming at me to get help, my lymphnodes get swollen on my L side. I feel so drained of energy. I used to work out for hours and work. Now I cant shower without getting tiered. there are more details and I keep copies of all my lab results and biopsy reports. but they confuse me. What is a tumor marker result mean or CA 125? pls help me

ca 125 raised means that any disease involving ovary. it is raised in ovarian carcinoma, or in non cancerous conditions such as pelvic inflammatory disease, ovarian cyst or any other infections. please get YOUR Hb checked up, as u r telling that u r so much tired. I think you may be having non cancerous condition causing all the symptoms.
