Ca125
I'm happily settling into remission with
Avastin
, but today my CA125 has come back as 9. I have had a hacking cough/virus but I'm panicked that this is the start of it all again. I know it's only 1 point but I'm feeling sick with worry. Has this happened to anyone else?

Avastin and less-common side effects, esp. joint pain.
Mine does not think so and has said that the only way we could be sure is by stopping the
Avastin
to see if it improves. My last CT scan showed the metastases were "significantly regressed" so
Avastin
is working and I don't want to stop it.

Private pay for evaluation and Avastin
Any idea what the damage might be for a visit for eval or
Avastin
injection? I'm in the US but I can get an idea and interpret the numbers... Many thanks.

Avastin cancelled and CA125 rising.
My
avastin
was cancelled today as I had too much protein in my urine. I often have it when I do a sample but I did a 24 hour sample and there was too much protein so treatment was cancelled. Will have it after my holiday. Also my CA125 was 54. It was 40 last time and lower each previous time.

Got sick and woke up with blurry vision.
My RS said there is swelling behind the eye, but it's gone down tremendously since my
avastin
shot. I saw in the photos first hand it has. I just remain very worried because it was all so sudden and he hasn't officially diagnosed the cause. He said it could have been a bite or some infection.

Afraid of a wet AMD relapse.
Dear All, I had several years of
Avastin
for Wet AMD in my right eye by a fantastic specialist and was discharged as cured about 5 years ago. I still had some light loss and a little distortion in the right eye and will forever.

CA125
I was 3C in Jan 2015 and CA was 700, I had debulking surgery in Dec 2015 followed by 6 rounds of carbo/taxol with 18 rounds of
Avastin
... long may all this continue. I wanted to share as at the beginning of my diagnosis I was totally devastated as we all know this feeling.

Avastin...cough?
My mother has been on
avastin
over a year now and has had a dry tickly cough since starting it. She's doing great on
avastin
so def won't be stopping that. Oncologist doesn't think it's a side effect of
avastin
. Are any of ye on
avastin
and had this?

Has anyone been able to lose the weight that they gained during chemo? If so how did you do it?
I've finished 8 sessions of taxol/Carbo and
avastin
end of last December. I've started a new line of Femara+Ibrance+
avastin
in January. Even though I insisted on stopping steroids during this new line of treatment I'm gaining weight like crazy.

Update
Mentioned
Avastin
and Parp Inhibitors specifically Olaparib. So the answer is got was that
Avastin
was only used as a first line treatment and as my mum has now had a reccurance she would not be suitable for this.

Avastin back ache
Happy days until Wednesday when I been getting an ache in my back left side along my bra strap I know
avastin
can give you back ache but that's a general side effect and was wondering if any of you who's been on
avastin
has had similar aches or if this ache could be something more sinister?

NED!!
Lol Although I still feel pain at the sole of my feet , my consultant said it was the result of chemo as its accumulative, the joint and muscle ache is because of
avastin
which I'm to continue until October .

Carboplatin and gemcitabine
They may even throw in
Avastin
for good measure. Has anyone been on the carbo and gemcitabine? What kind of side effects did you have particularly on the gemcitabine? The nasty beast is in my liver now.....and, maybe my colon and in my abdominal cavity.

Study Shows Zejula's Benefit in Treating Ovarian Cancer
Randomization was further stratified based on time to progression after completion of the penultimate platinum regimen, the use of
Avastin
(bevacizumab), and the best response (CR or PR) during the final platinum regimen.

Weekly Taxol plus Avastin
They have decided to use weekly taxol plus twice monthly
avastin
. On first line I had carbo/taxol. On the second day after treatment is when the severe fatigue set in and the ickys. Second line was
avastin
/doxil. I tolerated that incredibly well.

Stage 4 question
My question is I am on carbo/taxol and
avastin
and in June I'll be done with my final chemo. Now my doctor expressed that she does not want to keep me on chemo. I have heard from some women they put you on
avastin
or maintenance chemo. Now if I am in remission how common is this maintenance chemo?
