Small Increase NODE
Hi beautiful ladies, My mom was diagnosed in 2018 with Stage 4 High Grade. She has since had Taxol/Carbo and major debulking surgery. She was NED for 2 years. She then had a small increase in her external iliac node and she received 6 rounds of doxil/carbo. At this point her CA125 was 63. She was NED

Doxil?
I am wondering how long people can stay on Doxil. I have been receiving Doxil 1 x a month for over a year, and have been told there is a limit- but do not know what that limit might be. My Doctor just says why change what is working, or, you have a long way to go before you reach the limit, but nothing

Grateful to hear everyone’s experience. I’m Stage 3c, had major debulking, 6 rounds carbo/doxil, in remission about a year, on Zejula with minor side effects. The big challenge for me is more psychological/emotional than physical at this moment. The uncertainty weighs on me and my carer.

Petscan Question
I’m currently in treatment for my first recurrence. I finished 4 cycles of Carbo and Doxil and just had a petscan to see how chemo is working. My CA125 is continually going down each month as well. My scan shows an increase in my mass by 1 cm but my SUV uptake has decreased. I was told that a mass

Good Morning
I am a 73 year old who has been fighting MMMT cancer for 4 years. I am married, but separated, have 3 grown children and 3 grandsons. I am platinum resistant so I am taking Doxil.

Doxil side effects
I had doxil infusion 3 weeks ago and I had very little side effects other than constipation from the anti nausea meds. I took a fiber pill daily and have developed pain in my stomach like a soreness. I have now stopped the fiber pill but stomach is still sore. I was wondering if anyone else has had

Doxorubicin
I was just notified today that I will need to start monthly infusions of doxil as my ovarian cancer which I was diagnosed with in December of 2017 is now spreading into my omentum and on my colon. I finished 5 rounds of Carbo/taxol in July of 2021. My dr. said that it is milder than Carbo/taxol and

Yesterday’s CT scan

Reply to jersey-jazz. I thought you might also be interested in my medical history.
If you don’t mind to read a long story, I would love to provide more details. I moved to US since 2000. I worked here and had insurance all the time but never think about to use it since I always think myself as a healthy person. My first diagnosed DCIS on 2012 was in Taiwan when I went back to visit

Treating recurrence with Doxil: Side Effects?
I am three years from the end of carboplatin and Taxol chemotherapy for my Stage 3 ovarian cancer. Prior to chemo I had a complete hysterectomy, omentectomy, appendectomy, and transverse colon resection. I now have a recurrence, with a tumor near the sigmoid colon and rectum. There is no surgery or radiation

Doxil injection
I see the USA have approved an injection for use there, which apparently has less side effects than an infusion. Wonder if we will get it over here

Hair loss with carbo and doxil? Has anyone had this treatment and not lost their hair?
I am being informed my DRs that you don’t lose hair, but online says different. Any experience?

Tough decision
Hi ladies I’m at a crossroads! Had a third opinion from City of Hope this week. My first doc who did initial 3 chemo surgery and then 3 more carbo/taxol which stopped working according to her thus recommending letrozole which did nothing for two months She kind of gave up on me when my ca125 went up

Bathroom issues on avastin/doxil/carbo
Hi ladies, I hope everyone is as well as possible. My mom is currently on avastin, doxil and carbo for her first reoccurance and having bathroom issues. Every time she eats something (every other day) has horrible diarrhea for hours. She eats a very plain diet - spaghetti, chicken, plain, plain food

Cabo / doxil / avastin
Tomorrow I am taking my mom for her first infusion of carbo/doxil/avastin. My sister typically would take her during her first chemo rounds and I would do after care. Should I be prepared with anything? I plan to be with her all day tomorrow, Friday, Saturday and Sunday - she’s a nurse practitioner
