Is this 100% OVCA?

Hi,

My wife was diagnosed with 2 cysts in her ovaries 2 weeks ago after discomfort in her lower abdomen and pelvic area.  One is 3,5cm and the other 5,5cm. Smaller one is simple and avascular, the other is complex and vascular as her ultrasound report says.

She had a chocolate cyst removed some 10 years ago. At first doctor thought the new cysts would be chocolate cysts as they usually recur however he was concerned and ordered some bloodwork and the results are really bad:

CA125= 823

HE4= 585

Now we're getting ready to see a gyno oncologist. Her ob gyn says there is a chance the elavation of these markers may be due to endometriosis which after doing a little research it seems highly unlikely to me.

Any thoughts?

Thanks
