Diagnosed march 2021. Debunking surgery 12 rounds chemo. Then onto Zedula . All good until November 2022 more chemo for recurrence then Avastin . My Ca125 stable but just crept up to 36 so need scan and if any signs perhaps more chemo.I have coped really well no real side effects just inally lost hair and get weary. Managed 3 cruises this year and generally feel really well for a 68yr old. Great oncologist so no more I can ask for. Positive attitude is best I have come to realise. Just bad timing before Xmas.. Heart goes out to all of you ladies trying to cope. Xx

Thanks good to hear your stay positive message. There's always that monkey on your shoulder but I try to knock it off :) similar to you diagnosed March 2020 stage 4 /ascites drained fron lungs and tummy. 6 rounds chemo , big surgery 3 more rounds chemo, then Olparib. Recurrence after 2 a bit years. Then enlarged lymph nodes found so 6 more rounds chemo now clear again but found clots on lungs so on thinners. However with support from my family and friends & great team at hospital I am feeling good and looking forward to some holidays soon & welcoming our 2nd grandchild in June. Keep on waking up every morning and keep fighting 💪
