Hi everyone.
Just to report an update that my CA125 is 6 again, same as 6 months ago. Ibuprofen appears to be still working as an anti-cancer agent for me. See previous posts. I am assuming my tumour has the PIK3CA mutation, see previous posts in last year. I am extremely fortunate to be here. I was diagnosed with stage 3 PPC in Sept 2009, and had 2 recurrences, the last one in May 2014. Each time I very fortunately got full remission.
Last chemotherapy dose was over 5 years ago on Nov 7, 2014, and I have been fit and well since then, with CA125 running in single figures. It is checked every 6 months and I have a 6 monthly check with my cancer liaison nurse.
I am enjoying seeing my 2 young grandchildren, and still playing team tennis and hillwalking, and will be 72 next month. Sometimes it seems unbelievable. Thank goodness I chanced on an article about ibuprofen and its anti-cancer effect in some people in 2011, after my first recurrence. I am sorry it doesn't work for more people with ovarian cancer. You will see more info in my previous posts, especially in the last 18 months.
All best wishes to you all.
