I have had a CT with contrast which found a 4cm complex cyst, a vaginal doppler ultrasound that saw the cyst, a PET scan that showed moderate activity in the cyst and low activity in the para aortic lymph node, and I know my ca-125 is 100 and rising.

My question is what is the normal course for definitivly diagnosing cancer? Everyone says just get a full hysterectomy at 48 which I understand, but have any of you had a biopsy of the cyst or lymph node first? I'd hate to loose all my parts and then find out it was all benign.

Thoughts on your experieinces please!!! I am so confused!
