YET ANOTHER NEW THING....ANYONE HAD THIS HAPPEN?

Hi ladies I am currenty receiving second line treatment for a recurrence of OC Stage 3C. I'm in a clinical trial receiving Caelyx and Avelumab (immunotherapy). Yesterday I noticed I had some spotting and again today as well. Not much, actually very, very little, it didn't require using a pad, but it concerns me. I talked to my clinical trial nurse and she said this sometimes happens after debulking surgery, but mine was almost a year ago. Previous to diagnosis I didn't ever have spotting, but it did happen for one day only a couple of months ago, and my oncologist said not to worry about it unless it became heavier. I'm concerned now because it is the second time. The nurse said if it continued I need to come in and have it checked, but I'm just wondering....has anyone else had this happen? If so what were you told was the reason it was happening? Thanks for listening....Kim xx

Hi, you aren't constipated might be piles? Could be bad thrush. I have coped with these on caelyx.
