Has anyone been through similar. I was diagnosed in May 2020 after total hysterectomy bue due to bladder injury in surgery was unable to start chemotherapy due to risk of sepsis. I had 1st reoccurance in sept 2021 and finished carbo/taxol in jan 2022. I have been on Lynparza for 2 years just finished but my ca125 is still rising now at 92 but CT scan was clear in jan. And i get scans and bloods every 3 months xx

I hear what you're saying. I think though that you're not far from your next scan. Can't tell you not to worry. I was diagnosed same time as you. Same chemo. Also had recurrence almost immediately so had 2nd op then radiotherapy. Now it's come back again. I haven't heard of Lynparza (is it a PARP inhibitor?). Just sending hugs. We're still here and we do hear. xx

Yes its a parp inhibitor. If id had chemo straight after surgery i may have gone longer before reoccurance unfortunately due to bladder injury i couldnt have it. I was told when i have another reoccurance it will be chemo again xx
