Currently on Avastin. Hands seizing up badly and Painful stiff shoulders. Anyone had the same?
I'm worried that if I continue with my
avastin
treatment my hands and shoulders are just going to get worse and worse and possibly risk permanent damage and permanent seizing up. But i'm worried that if i stop
avastin
, i will risk the cancer returning quicker.

CA125 fluctuations on avastin
Hi all, i hope everyone is keeping well during this difficult time. i was just wondering what kind of fluctuations in CA125 did people with high grave serous ovarian cancer( stage 3) experience while on
avastin
as maintenance- without it signalling a recurrence.

NCSLC with brain mets drugs
I also read Tagrisso and
Avastin
may help but these are also for EGFR positives. How can we choose a drug now out of these options that may work? Are there any studies or cases showing that any of them worked even if these drugs were not meant to work initially?

Chemotherapy again!!! 😜😕🙄
I will do 4 chemos and then monthly I will have a drug called
Avastin
. I did already 2 chemos and it is much worse than 7 years ago. I lost my hair , my bones and vains are in pain, I don't have sense of taste. Also we place a port for the rest of my therapies. Is there a lady like me here??

First line treatment and Avastin - advice please
It’s seems though, that I’m also being given
Avastin
on the 3rd cycle that will continue for 18 cycles. Stupidly I didn’t think to question it, I just thought it was a good thing as I’d read that some women have wanted
Avastin
but have been denied it.

POST SURGERY CHEMOTHERAPY
Our local hospital proposed 6 chemo cycles followed by monitoring and possibly
avastin
. We got a second opinion and we were advised to go for 3 cycles of chemo ,surgery and 3 more cycles. We decided this was best .

Liver enzymes super high
I am on Carbo, Gemzar, and
Avastin
. I could not start my second cycle due to low wbc’s. So I had two weeks off of chemo. In that time my liver enzymes ate through the roof. They went from 57 to 457 in that time had anyone else had this experience?

Does Ovestin cream help bladder prolapse?
My bladder prolapse can’t go any further south. I used to walk miles and cannot do so now. Have been using the cream for a month now. Can anyone tell me if it will help? I do know it can take weeks, it can it help “shove” my bladder back up?
