Go to http://www.labtestsonline.org.au and have a hunt round there - they give the other things that can cause a high reading.

I have booked a thermo-imaging appointment next wednesday to make sure there are no tumours since the last MRI(in December) showed none. So disapointing.... I feel like swearing but that's probably not allowed on here?!:) Fri, 14 Jan 2011 06:38:55 GMT https://onlinecommunity.cancercouncil.com.au/t5/Treatments-and-side-effects/high-CA125-any-other-reasons/m-p/5968#M1064 Hev 2011-01-14T06:38:55Z https://onlinecommunity.cancercouncil.com.au/t5/Treatments-and-side-effects/high-CA125-any-other-reasons/m-p/5969#M1065 sorry Hev, cant help you out on this one!
