Sorry Inguc_is

Have no answers. It seems to me that they go with whatever they think you can take and that has the most chance of being effective. I have been told carbo/caelyx for my third line but that could change when we actually get there.

Does your Mum have symptoms? I was considered stable with a ca125 of 243 with no symptoms. So you might find they don’t want to act yet. xx

I have just had second recurrence after 4-5 months and have been put on low dose weekly taxol . I have 3 weeks on and then a week off for 6 months They have put a picc line in my arm which makes it much easier . They told me not to delay chemo once symptoms start as it can cause other problems. Unfortunately the cancer becomes resistant to the chemo . You can research supplements and oxygen therapies to help the chemo work better . But the NHS won’t help you with that it has to be done privately. Xx
