Encouraging CT results on Abraxane
So...we stay the course,
Abraxane
every other week, keep monitoring liver enzyme levels and CA15-3 (it's been holding at around 135 for the last two months) and ride this train as far as it will take me.

Newcomer - Frederica
In April of this year I started on
Abraxane
and Tecentriq. I am on my 3rd month. My numbers have gotten better, my pain is gone (of course they immediately put me on pain meds and am now on a fentanyl patch - wonderful bit of medicine), as is most of the swelling.

Chemo Update
It is
Abraxane
(Nab-Paclitaxel). The side effects expected are basically everything you have ever heard. Hair loss and muscle and joint pain and the two givens he said. I will get it once a month.

Genomic testing for the right drug for your type of cancer cell.
I just started
Abraxane
last week. First two days were ok third day muscle and bone pain set in. My legs swelled up so bad I could not walk. Was a little better. Anyone try
abraxane
?. Seems like the only time I feel good is when I am not on any treatment or one that is not working.

Back to Radiation!!
So hoping to start next week- I just did 3 months of
Abraxane
and 2 months of Doxil with zero success. He is looking into a few more chemo options-sacituzumab govitecan soon to be approved by FDA. Other options as well. Can you share any tricks for radiation-it’s been 5 years since I went thru it.

Preventing/treating neuropathy from Abraxane or Taxol?
I've had six
Abraxane
treatments since February. I'm thrilled that it's dropping my cancer marker, but I think I'm starting to have a bit of neuropathy...either that or someone is sneaking into my bedroom in the middle of the night and putting pins in the pad of my big toes.

Good news!
I hope it encourages others who may be needing to start on Taxol or
Abraxane
. I started
Abraxane
in February after my early January scan showed a lot more liver metastases. I also have lots of bone mets. I had been on Xeloda for 7 months before that.

*New Treatment*
Previous treatment of Tecentriq+
Abraxane
was beginning to stop working so my oncologist switched me to Carboplatin+Gemzar. Funny thing is, this is the treatment she was considering before but she went with the Tecentriq+
Abraxane
instead.

Abraxane

This time I e gotten dizzy a few times despite eating and I have what feels like heart flutters. The Dr is bringing me in for fluids this afternoon but I’m thinking I’ll

Favorite remedy for chemo-induced mouth sores?
I had my first dose of IV
Abraxane
on Wednesday, 80mg, and for the most part so far so good. I've been told the fatigue, hair loss and neuropathy take a few weeks to kick in. The only noticeable side effect so far is that everything tastes strange and my mouth feels kind of fuzzy.

Goodbye Xeloda, Hello Taxol or Abraxane
If Taxol doesn't work for me
Abraxane
is the next option so any feedback about that also much appreciated. Thanks for being there!

Enlarged neck nodes
Wondering if anyone has experienced swollen hard nodes in the neck- I have just started on
Abraxane
for my TNB- was hoping that it would help them shrink.

My treatment journey
Since my Stage 1 breast cancer found in 2012 I have had Taxol, Taxotere, Gemzar and
Abraxane
. 55 rounds. Just remember there always new drugs and procedures coming out. So I never give up hope.

Thank you to all you lovely people who responded to my abraxane enquiry
I have had many responses to my post about
abraxane
. Thank you to all of you who took the time to give me your advice. I really appreciate it. Had my 1st infusion yesterday afternoon and apart from the nurses having 4 goes at inserting a cannula the day went well.

Abraxane
