Experiences with

Avastin

My CSN nurse said it's best to have the vaccine 2 weeks after an Avastin treatment and 1 week before the next treatment if possible, as it'd give your immune system a chance to recover after an Avastin treatment.

I am presently on avastin 1 more to go out of 18 however I am also on steroids for pain avastin is giving me and know I will be due vaccine in couple of weeks is there any medical indication that this would be uswise

I’ve had 18 weekly sessions of taxol and Avastin. My oncologist is giving me the option to continue the taxol or maintenance only with Avastin. I’m not sure if there is any benefit. Has anyone got experience our advice?

This happened with first line, Taxol/Carbo and second line, Carbo/Gemzar/Avastin. I stayed on Avastin and same storyline...my docs are thinking of Parps. Has anyone had similar experiences? Nadie

This is my 4th cycle but 1st following my surgery on 23rd December and first with avastin Thank you any advice appreciated

Hello all, has anyone had Doxil and Avastin together after front line recurrence? If so, how did you tolerate that combo? Thank you Sashay

Re: Avastin drug - nerve pain?

HI Everyone Has anyone got any thoughts or experience of a break in their Avastin cycle... Briefly I had my 4th infusion on 4th December 2020 then found out I need a mastectomy on 19th January for a stage 3 breast and lymph node cancer. My 2 cancers are unrelated apparently. So...

Treatment has followed a protocol of 4 chemo, de-bulking 2 further chemo then post-op starting Avastin alongside the 5th chemo. She had her second Avastin 5 days ago along with final chemo, since then she's felt increasingly weak,tired ( chemo?)

Hi beautiful lady’s .I am in Avastin and have throat pain,have blisters on my throat .Its normal?

Has anyone got hives from a v a i s t i a n use contribute I did a few years ago and I might be going back on it again because it does help

I finished the chemo on 5 October and am now just having Avastin. I went for my first Avastin only treatment today and was told that I didn't need blood tests for four months and I wouldn't have a CT scan either.

Hi 👋🏻 I am currently on 3 weekly Avastin maintenance treatment following remission after 6 cycles of Taxol/Carbo for stage 4b ovarian cancer.

I have had Eyelea and Avastin and Lucentis. Currently on Lucentis and my vision was 20/25 2 weeks ago. I developed wet AMD in my right eye a year ago. I agreed to participate in a clinical trial for either Lucentis or Avastin.

I have been on maintenance with Avastin every 3 weeks and then oral Cytoxin was added as Ca-125 continued to climb. I started in the 80’s after completing Gemzar/Carbo/Avastin. My scans looked great 2 months ago in spite of my rising Ca 125.

I was mildly elevated at times(pre Avastin therapy) but nothing ever this high. Increased BP is a somewhat documented side effect of IV Avastin injections. Anyone having BP issues since starting IV Avastin?

Finishing trials I have only one more treatment of avastin due in M arch after 15 months. Has anyone else been on this trial and how did the feel when it came to an end. I am feeling a bi anxious and I thought I would be pleased having no more treatment. MadMolly

I had chemo and debunking surgery in 2019 followed by avastin for 12 months. Recent PET scan shows that the cancer has reoccurred in three places in peritoneum.

I am to have Abraxane (hopefully won't react to this taxane as the carrier is different), Avastin, Herceptin and Perjeta. Having it in one session, 3 weekly and I suspect it will knock me for six. Anybody out there had a similar combination?
