Stage 4 advanced ovarian cancer
Doctor mentioned chemo after surgery and
Avastin
can help to destroy remaining cells. Do you have any idea about this condition? I am too worry about remaining visible cells. The size of them is about 1-2 millimetre

Still getting symptoms after 6 infusions of Chemo; abdominal pain and groin pain swollen stoma, anyone possibly shed some light on this?
Iโm continuing to have
Avastin
at the moment. But Iโm worried that these symptoms have spread and are not subsiding at all.

exam without costly OCT scan?
I am opting to use
avastin
@ $100 instead of Eylea due to cost differnce even though i hate that it is preloaded in a silicone lubricated syringe. I had stopped using that when I read of possible silicone leakage into the eye.

Here we go again - again!!
One of the trial drugs was
Avastin
which I had in 2017, but as my tumour is troubling my bowel, I am not allowed to have it again. So I have to see my team on 31st and will be starting chemo (probably Carboplatin and gemcitabine - any advice welcome) in the New Year.

Avastin
were already not working and feeling my sell by date was getting nearer, to yesterday afternoon with someone telling me the opposite you can imagine my mood is great.

Avastin mandated as first drug to try by my insurance-caused silicone floater
I HAVE to try
Avastin
first due to my insurance mandating a "proven fail"...for each eye. I have to try 3 injections. The first one for my right eye gave my a permanent silicone floater the shape of a comet directly in my line of sight.

Cloudy vision after avastin injection
I had my fourth shot of
avastin
last week and for the first time I am experiencing cloudy vision. My doctor examined me and said nothing is serous. The cloudy vision is coming fron the gel of the eye which has been disturbed by the injection, said it will settle down.

Excruciating pain immediately after eylea injections - no betadyne
Nearly a year of
Avastin
injections and two years of Eylea injections, no betadyne being used the last two years because I could not tolerate. Now (the last 4 inections) I have excruciating eye pain after the injection and last time a few minutes of no vision at all in the eye.

Unbearably itchy arm from PICC. PICC taken out. Getting a Port put in. One more carbo/taxol then Avastin for 1y. Good choice to get port?
Hi ladies. Iโve had a bit of trouble getting cannulated for my treatments. First treatment took 5 attempts to cannulate. Other infusions only took one go but I was advised to get a PICC due to my small veins. I only had the PICC in for four days before I had to get it taken out again, it was unbearably

Hope
Avastin
is a drug that is used for brain edema, and can essentially take care of it within 4 doses. Comes with a possible large price tag. So we will consider. But if we can get him off steroids which the
Avastin
will allow; that re opens the door for the immunotherapy that could save his life.

Scared
My OC returned despite being on maintenance
Avastin
after major debulking surgery and total hysterectomy. It's in my stomach lymph nodes, on my bowel, liver, peritoneum and omental area. I was told I might have another five years if the carbo and Caelyx work enough, so I might reach 56.

Dilemma with specialist protocol
Opthalmologist referred me to a retinal specialist whom I have seen every 4 weeks for the last 5 years for
avastin
-eylea injections and now wants to see me every 6 weeks. My dilemma is the referring opthalmologist still wants to see me every 6 months.

Trying to cope.
And decidedly disappointed with my stupid body and it's stupid reactions to the
avastin
. It's been over a year since I've been on it and I am always, always tired. Bone tired.
