Great news, not so great news and the AMD learning curve
I daresay I'll be giving an update on
Avastin
and in the meantime good luck to all my fellow injectees!

CA125 Rising Even with Chemo
I’ve had
Avastin
3 times (3 weeks apart) and carbo and taxol every week for the past 4 weeks. After the first treatment of
Avastin
my CA125 went from 211 to 157. I was encouraged and feeling good about treatments.

photodynamic therapy
I have had a series of 7
avastin
then 2 eylea injections. My Dr. is suggesting using PDR therapy so that I can extend beyond 4 weeks since leakage is still showing up in one eye. Is this too soon to give up and add another therapy.

Battling ovarian cancer (recurrance)
This time it is cisplatin and gemcitabine, with
Avastin
thrown in recently too. I am about half way through the second round of chemo, but my CA125 is not going down.

AVASTIN
What do you think of todays news about
Avastin
. It might save the NHS a lot of money but is that a good enough reason to use old technology. Would you like to go back to dial-up internet if it was cheaper? It would be interesting to hear what our American members think.

Flying after Lucentis injection, is it safe?
I usually have
avastin
injected into my eye after a bleed and usually takes about 4 months to fully get my vision back. I have recently moved to a Scottish Island so now need to fly to get to hospital, and I just wanted to know if it is safe to fly the same day as injection?

Feeling a tad fed up
I’d had two treatments of
Avastin
cancelled due to blood in urine and because of the operation. When I saw my oncologist on 30 August she made the appointment for me to have
Avastin
today.

Avastin joint pain and stiffness
I have had chemo - carboplatin and taxol and have now been on
Avastin
only for six months. I am getting increasingly stiff joints. I find I can't get out of bed and stand up easily.

Consultants in two specialties: Compare and contrast
Therefore, it is obviously in the interests of the population of patients that
Avastin
be used in preference to Lucentis.

avastin
yesterday as the last two doses I had an allergic reaction to it .This is was on my 10th and 11th but on my 5th and 6th of having it on it own. Rashes on both arms and around my lips 👄.

So far I'm just over 2 weeks into it, I was fine but the last 4 days I was experiencing headache, slight dizziness and my blood pressure is high which I never had before even when I was on
avastin
. I take paracetamol & ibuprofen for headaches which helps a lot.

Avastin
I’m in the US and have a choice about adding in
Avastin
to my first go of chemo and of being in a trial that requires 22 treatments of
Avastin
for maintenance. The doc said
Avastin
would only add 2 months without recurrence. I wonder what others would recommend-especially about side effects?

Unbelievable Updated Update
I was also told that once I had completed 3 cycles of Carbo/Taxol that I would have another assessment with a view to adding
Avastin
, that assessment has not happened, so not feeling the care at the moment!

My juicing formula for my mother with stage 4 primary peritoneal cancer/ovarian cancer now almost fully recovered
She then, like many of you, started 6 rounds of paclitaxel, carboplatin, and
avastin
. When her cancer was first discovered, blood test showed CA125 of over 2,000. After the debulking surgery it went down to around 400.

2nd try: Avastin (Bevacizumab) + Taxol (Update)
Please let me know if any of you all had success with
Avastin
(Bevacizumab) or some other 2nd line treatment for platinum resistant ovarian cancer. Also, if you know how to deal with the terrible rash that occurs immediately following this treatment please also share any guidance. Peace, Candace
