Cramps above belly button and nausea after eating - currently on chemo
She is on chemo right now - carbo/taxol weekly and
avastin
added on one of the weeks. Has anyone gone through something similar while on chemo? I am scared that this means she is progressing while on chemo...which means it isn't working.

What happened to you after Avastin?
I'll be on
Avastin
as a maintenance treatment for one to two years. I'm just wondering what happened to others at the end of their maintenance? Thank you all. This site is so helpful and reassuring.❤️

PET scans
Following surgery it was 424 and then 400 but the ct scan was clear so I was started on
Avastin
alone.

Looking for advice as to whether Avastin is the right option for my mum
Following an appointment with her oncologist today she was told that
Avastin
was possibly an option and she has to make the decision whether to try it. As mums scans showed NED and CA125 is within normal range can anyone advise if
Avastin
is the best option.

AMD Injection Procedure
I have had injections of all the drugs used for AMD: Lucentis,
Avastin
and Eyelea. Of the three, my experience after more than 40 injections is that Eyelea was the least effective. At present I’m having Lucentis in the left eye and
Avastin
in the right eye, for reasons that only NICE can explain!

Is this it?
Having already had Carbo/Taxol,
Avastin
and Carbo/Caelyx all he has left in his arsenal is weekly Taxol. Can you please tell me how you managed with this, and whether it was worthwhile.

Hit another hurdle! Need some support from you lovely ladies!
It's turns out that i have 3 lymph nodes in my diaphragm next to my heart and she mentioned
avastin
bit thinks we should go with just chemo 1st as
avastin
slows recovery during chemo. And hopefully get full debunking but not sure when! Any of you had thus knock back last minute?

Treatment Options at 2nd recurrence.
In addition, there's also the question of sequencing, with one oncologist strongly recommending going with the standard of care they know works, ie
avastin
+ paclitaxel, and seeing where I am with the trial after the treatment in option 1.

Does Avastin cause a drop in ca125?
Hello All, I'm on
Avastin
as a maintenance treatment, and my ca125 is dropping a point or two with each blood test even though the main chemotherapy ended nearly 4 months ago. Has anyone else experienced this good effect?
