Any advice apprecaited
His steroids were re started at a higher dose and he received several doses of
avastin
generic type. He started with SOB. The CT scan showed saddle PEs. We started lovenox and plan to continue for 2 weeks and the plan is then to transition to oral dose.

Colostomy
Since then, have undergone 6 cycles of chemo (
avastin
, Carboplatin, taxol). Now, am anticipating for surgery on Feb 27 ( in 3 weeks). My surgery told me there’s a 50/50 chance I will need colostomy ( tumor pressing on my rectum).

chemotherapy followed by maintenance avastin
After 6 cycles the doctor wants to start
avastin
as maintenance. I am afraid that stopping the chemo and having only
avastin
won't keep the CA 125 down. Has anyone received maintenance
avastin
having a high CA125? Did it keep the CA125 at the same level or lower?

question about chemo for recurring tumour
He has had an enlarged biopsy, a removal of tumour, radiotherapy x 2, months of TMZ and
avastin
. We’ve had 6 months of stable scans and no chemo which has been amazing. Recent scan showed regrowth and the oncologist is recommending lomustine and
avastin
.

Post treatment controls
I'm starting on
avastin
until October next year, with blood test every three months. My oncologist is saying that the blood tests and CT scans will stop at the end of the
avastin
and they won't carry out regular follow up investigations, which is making scared.

Avastin following taxol/carbo
I need to decide, should I just monitor with bloods or start taking
avastin
now? Is anyone else using
avastin
and when did you start?

Avastin
failed. I’m now on Niraparib, my CA125 after 2 months is stable at 18, I’m feeling like me again after two years! My bloods are the best they’ve ever been and I don’t have any side effects so far!

3C Chemo Combo
She’s having a combination of Carboplatin, Paclitaxel and
Avastin
as they have assessed that she’s relatively fit. I was wondering if anyone’s had this combination? From what I’ve read it looks intense with quite brutal side effects.

Living with cancer
My latest CT scan shows stability but peritoneal cancer in the pelvis and cancer under my chest still remains and I am only on
Avastin
now which is keeping it stable but not killing the cancer.

Where do I go from here?
Straight on to
Avastin
plus Olaparib (HRD negative). No more cancer in lymph nodes but slight progression in main abdominal tumour. 5 rounds of Carboplatin before progression. 2 rounds of Caelyx. Progression of size of tumour more than 20% so told Caelyx isn’t working.

Referral from Wales to England - any experience?
Just had CT scan following 3rd cycle of carboplatin/paclitaxol and 2nd of
Avastin
. CA125 has reduced from 374 pre-chemo to 26 post 2nd cycle which I'm hoping is a positive sign!

Looking to hear personal experiences of bevacizumab/ Avastin
This person will shortly be commencing 18 cycles of bevacizumab/
Avastin
and is seeking to hear from people who have experienced this treatment please. They would like to know how people have felt on this treatment, what side effects people had and how it compared with chemotherapy.

Should I discontinue Tecentriq/Avastin infusion therapy?
Had one infusion, side effect relentless diarrhea, then no bowel movement for 5 days, with stomach pain that had me near suicidal!Drank 16oz of hot peppermint ginger tea, incontinent for 2 days. Finally stabilized after 7th level of hell. Can't see risking another try.
