High white blood count
Had my 14 dose of
avastin
and I was given my results of bloods which i had done 3 weeks ago, my ca125 remains at 9 which is fan, but my wbc is 12. Normal range is 11 and under. Does this indicate that it is high?

Vaginal/Bladder discomfort during chemo?
I'm currently on Doxil/
Avastin
for my first recurrence. It also happened once while I was on carbo/taxol during frontline. Can anyone relate to this? If so, did anything help? I'm 64 and not sexually active, so it's definitely not from that!!! The discomfort is maddening! Thanks.

Has anyone seen my big girl's knickers?
The carbo/caelyx has done zilch and all the tumours have marched along merrily this last six months as the
avastin
alone didn't do anything either. I'm going to start on Hycamtim in two weeks, once the carbo/caelyx is out of my system.

Brain mri showing something
They thought it was due to the
avastin
but suggested a brain mri and body pet CT. pet CT was clear but brain mri showed something on my meninges at base of skull. Oncologist saw me last night and has admitted me for a different mri of brain and a lumbar puncture.

Missing chemo
I’m currently on
avastin
and doxil. I’m going on a vacation and am thinking of skipping one round of treatment so that I’ll feel better and these mouth sores will go away. The way my treatments are scheduled this will mean it’ll be a month between treatments if I skip one.

Hi, I am just about to go for my second
Avastin
injection this week, I don’t see much improvment since the first, the sight is still quite distorted so don’t feel safe to drive, the glare is a little better but mainly as I have bought the over glasses.

Avastin
Just wondering what are the views on
Avastin
injections, and the side affects being encountered. I read it is widely used and I have just had my first injection, too early to say if it’s helping but not felt too good since.

Avastin treatments.
How long is the longest anyone has been on
Avastin
for maintenance? In Canada the government will pay for 12 treatments, but not more as there is no clinical proof that it remains effective after this period.

New chemo regieme
The new chemo (
Avastin
is not funded in NZ) is Carboplatin and gemicitabine. Can anyone tell me about side effects. My original treatment was Paclitaxel and Carboplatin. I had significant joint pain with first line treatment and total hair loss. Had hospital admissions as pancytopenic.

both eyes same day?
Went to a new specialist and he gave me
Avastin
injection in both eyes on the same day. This was my 4th injection series and other doctors would not do same day injections. It is better for me due to distance I must travel.

Stage IVb Uterine Cancer
It climbed again a few months later and I’m now on doxil and
avastin
for about 6 sessions. My hands, legs and back really hurt. I’m scared about my prognosis. Have any of you had the same diagnosis/treatment? Thank you. Debbie
