Hello all you lovely ladies.

I am thinking about it but will be costly as it doesn't coincide with my treatment in London.

[Katiebairdie in reply to Neona]

This damned disease gets in the way of everything.

Good luck with your treatment. Where do you live?

[Neona in reply to Katiebairdie]

Cornwall. Really want to go though.

[Neona in reply to Neona]

Will wear a label with Neona on if I go.

[Katiebairdie in reply to Neona]

That is a very long way.

Try getting in touch with Target Ovarian Cancer, they may be organising something nearer to you in the future.

When is your London appointment?

I go every fortnight but naturally it is the following week!

Hi Kathy

I might go the only thing is I could be starting immunotherapy drug on the 10th and I am wondering how quickly any side effects might kick in probably not that early I hope. It's the same one you are on so could you let me know how quickly you had a reaction if any please.

Thanks Maureen xx

Hello,

I’ve been on the treatment for about six weeks and the only symptom I have had is constipation. The doc gave me tablets in anticipation of this. She also gave me a mouthwash which I haven’t needed. I also had to have a talk with pharmacist who told me to keep out of the sun and to wear a hat. I’m doing my best but I am on holiday in Spain. Bit tricky!

Good luck and hopefully see you there. I’ll have my teal ribbon on
