I’ve recently joined the wet macula brigade unfortunately!
It good to have a forum to chat with people already diagnosed, I am 69 with one eye wet and the other dry, I have just had my first
Avastin
injection and the dreaded iodine that wasn’t used sparingly, I found the injection more painful than I was led to believe so not looking forward to the next, I have

tired after injections?
Anyone find that they are more tired than usual after
avastin
injections? This is very uncommon for me, and I do not think I am stressed about the process( 4th injection, both eyes), but I have had to travel a lot for the injections. I notice it for several days.

I’m new, but have to share.
On Jan. 31, 2017, began 1st monthly
Avastin
injection, ultimately receiving 4 injections. The
Avastin
injections cleared the black floater, but a few gnat size floaters and distortion remained. Started first Eylea injection on June 12, 2017.

Avastin
Has anyone with metastasis stopped
Avastin
due to side effects? I’ve been on it for almost two and a half years and am starting to feel tingling toes. Also I have immense bubbles in my urine. My oncologist is sick and I don’t want to wait till I see him in a couple of months

Totally unexpected diagnosis
So 3 courses of chemo followed by Debulking and total hysterectomy followed by a further 3 courses of chemo and
Avastin
every three weeks afterwards. Total treatment time 15 months, This has all been such a horrendous shock.

Lymph nodes down, CA125 up. How can that be?
My CA went from 126 to 152 from January to end of April on
avastin
only. Stopped that and began the carbo/caelyx straight away and just got my bloods and CA is 180. It's going the wrong way and I don't know why. Next PET scheduled for July and next chemo in 4 weeks.

Pinched vision
She was treated with
Avastin
around three weeks ago. She also had a blind spot at the time which has since resolved. She had a scan today and they told her she doesn't need more injections and that her macula looks OK.

Has anyone had a doctor not be able to penetrate the eye wall ?
Hello, I am new here and have just had my second
Avastin
injection. The first one went well, felt a little pressure as the needle was inserted. That day my eye was tearing and sore next morning a little crusty. Bloodshot was not too bad and after a week all seemed back to normal.

Struggling with news of relapse
My oncologist is aiming for stability by using Letrozole, trying to delay the weekly taxol/
avastin
until a later stage. Anyone any experience of this?

Has anyone experienced Hair Loss with Zejula?
Have already been thru Taxol/Carbo after surgery the 1st time, then Gemzar/Carbo after surgery the 2nd time followed with
Avastin
till my kidneys couldn't take that anymore. So I have already been down that road of wigs & hats, hoping not to go there again.

Change in sight
Have had one injection with
Avastin
. Haven't seen much of a change. One big change is that I could see much clearer with my glasses off as far as signage at a distance.

No more Avastin
they wrote on the report, so no more
avastin
and to go back in 5 weeks for a ca125 to see what’s happening.

No More Treatment
They aren't offering any more chemo or any further treatment at all really, they gave her a little hormone tablet to take daily that might 'keep it at bay' but that doesn't sound very promising, so they've basically said there is nothing more they can do, we mentioned

Avastin+ Chemotherapy
Hello, Has anybody used the combination of carbo/taxol and
avastin
after surgery? If so, I would appreciate share your experience regarding its side effect. Thanks, Sara
