My consultant gave me results of latest scan I have oc stage 4b diagnosed june 2018. After chemo in 2018 and avastin which finished march this year the cancer no longer stable very active in liver and spread to outside of bowel. So after two years back on chemo after Christmas. This time carboplatin and caeylx. In hospice now I have had ascites 4 litres drained so far. The right goes on.

I'm sorry about your cancer acting up and hope the drain will make you comfortable. I found carbo/caelyx quite tolerable, just six sick days out of 28 each cycle. I wish you whatever joy you can find over the holidays and hope things improve quickly for you. xx
