When you say the doctor, "wouldn't look her in the eye". Is very concerning. This is often seen as one who may be deceitful. As an RN of over 30 years, I really don't trust the medical community.

They should have the CA-125 results in by now. Just a word of warning, it CAN be a good marker but it is non-specific and non-diagnostic. CA-125 can be elevated due to other reasons than just OVCA, and in some people with advanced disease it doesn't really go up. That's why it's not done regularly as a screening test.

Hoping for the best...
