Guest guest Posted May 6, 2005 Report Share Posted May 6, 2005 I feel I'm a ticking time bomb myself as cancer goes. I had some cancer on a cyst on my ovary last October. I've been trying to get tested for aspergillus all year, not yet done. I've also been trying to get tested for Candidas which frequently accompanies it and hurray got tested last week, whew! Test results are said to take a month. However my tumor marker blood tests show higher numbers for digestive system cancer CA-19 and CA-125 (ovarian marker). I had upper right pelvic quantrant pain which is area of liver and pancrease presugery that I thought was cyst pressing on area but I still had to post surgery for almost a month. However it has disappeared now. My doctor has been running liver function tests on me though but for some reason, my gut feeling is I am on the verge of cancer coming back. Cyst that it was in burst inside me. Hence the rush I am in with regards to mold. Doctors of course don't see a connection between my concern for mold and my concern with cancer so eekkk, it's just me alone against the world it seems. I've read that getting an aspergillus infection has more to do with immune health of person rather than amount of exposure. I've read that a couple of places. My cancer brush shows my immune system is down and I had aspergillus visible on basement walls. Friends wonder what I do with my time. They go to doctor and then they take their medicine and that's it. I feel like I'm studying for a PHD in medicine and also mold and also remediation/remodeling --- In , " kengib .
