You will all be glad to know that for a mere £169 I can now have a screen for ovarian cancer, comprising an ultrasound trans-vaginal scan and a CA125 blood test.If either of these tests is "positive" then I can be referred to a Harley Street specialist within five days. The company recommend this test is carried out annually on all women over 40 and is apparently not available on the NHS. Well, that's all right then.
