[Update] On my wife’s chemo treatment - Ovarian Cancer Stage 3

[prateek0490]

Thank you everyone for your well wishes and support She knows what stage it is and have also consulted our dr team for the same where dr have told her that it’s curable and she will be alright.

But it wasn’t a good experience yesterday. Chemo has started, it was pretty tough the first chemo, her body wasn’t responding properly, it was Paclistar 115 Mg and

Carboplatin 200 Mg Injection.

She fell unconscious couple of times during chemo and was kept under observation for 12 hours. She is stable now and we’re done with first dose. Hope her body responds well in next dose and more doses to come.

Keep your blessings coming our way, we need it. Thanks everyone 🙏🏻

So sorry to read how difficult the Chemo was for your wife. Maybe they can lower the next dose slightly which has helped me with two lines. Also, perhaps the'll be able to give the chemo much more slowly as that can prevent reactions very often. Sending you good luck wishes and love to you both, Solange 😊

Solange had it covered.

Keep looking after you wife as well as you do, Prateek, and don't hesitate to ask her oncologist for options e. g. more/different pre meds (I got ranitidine, dimetinden and dexamathasone on the day, plus anti sickness meds) , to ensure the next chemo is tolerated better. All the best for your wife and yourself, Maus.

I agree with the other posts and I wish you good luck supporting your wife. It's awful to watch someone go through chemo especially when they have a bad reaction. Hoping the hospital get it right the next time and the treatment starts to work for her Gina xx
