Bladder pain
I had bladder pain and frequency and went to a specialist as my GP did not want to prescribe more antibiotics and the labtest showed no infection. (I had had some a month or so before). In less than 10 minutes the specialist decided I had a persistent infection but also thought an alternative to antibiotics

CA-125 test
I started my maintenance of
Avastin
1/28/22, & received a CA-125 test that came back as 13. The CA-125 test is giving me high anxiety, to say the least! Because I'm worried that my CA-125 test keeps ticking up, & it's worrying me.

Night sweats
Good morning. Hope all well. Off Phenergan tabs 5 night now. Sleep 3 hrs then awake for 3 hrs then 1 more hr. I wake dripping in sweat after first sleep. Didn't have this when on Phenergan. I had it previously but been on Ovestin ( hrt for nearly 2 years). That really helped but I don't know what started

Cytoxan and Avastin
Hello and Happy New year to all I was wondering if any of you lovely ladies have been given oral cytoxan pills 50mg. daily in conjunction with
Avastin
as a maintenance after Carbo/Taxol for high grade serous ovarian cancer. I stopped chemo in September and have only been taking
Avastin
.

On to my next treatment plan...
But she wants me to start a maintenance of
Avastin
for 2 years. Has anyone else done this treatment plan, if so please tell me your experience. I am not happy with the prospect of high blood pressure tho.

Olaparib/Avastin for more than two years?
Hello everyone, I was all ready to wrap up my
Avastin
/olaparib treatment now that the two year mark is almost here. Everything I read everywhere says, Yep, two years of this maintenance after chemo and you're done.

Weekly Carbol/Taxol experiences?
For frontline, she had 3 weekly carbol/taxol/
avastin
for 8 cycles. Now, her oncologist is recommending weekly carbol/taxol for 18 weeks. Has anyone had this regimen?

Hi everyone,
I am having
avastin
at the moment. My appointment was at 11 o’clock and the
avastin
is only half an hour . But there was confusion as to how much
avastin
I was having. One nurse thought they doubled the dose so I only come in every six weeks.

What Next?
I have had Carbo/Taxol with
Avastin
, Carbo/Caelyx, Rucaparib and am now ready for the next goody bag. Single Taxol has been suggested, but I have heard that this is not very successful. Does anyone know differently? I believe I could also have single line Carbo or Caelyx. Any thoughts on that?

Chemo side effects tips
I'm currently on carboplatin and
Avastin
. Just had my third round this Monday. Due to temperature spikes at home on Thursday, I was then assessed in hospital. I didn't want to cause a fuss and thought I should just ride it through. Told not to do that.

One dangerous ride !!
My oncologist reduced my
Avastin
dose , but was happy that my immune system was able to fend off the virus itself .My throat was still red but was happy that I fought it off without antibiotics . It took 10days , but finally improving , apparently, in our area this virus is doing the rounds .

Good News.
She qualified this with the fact that it is likely to recur, but I can't live my life waiting for that and will have to deal with it if and when it happens and I will be on maintenance (probably
Avastin
).

Opdivo immunotherapy
Insurance denied the Tecentriq and
Avastin
combo at last minute so we're going with Opdivo instead. His insurance company is changing at end of month so Oncologist says can always try again for approval with new company. He wanted to start something though ASAP so I guess it's better than nothing.

How long does it take Avastin to start working? What if it isn't working?
I was hoping that the
Avastin
would keep me stable for a while, but I can't seem to catch a break. Joan (Cher 96)

Avastin with Olaparib dilemma. Who to go to for a 2nd opinion?
First said I could make a decision on whether I have
Avastin
with Olaparib or just Olaparib.

Acupuncture
My OH booked me an appt to see if we could sort out my CIPN (thighs, hands, feet) and joint pain from
Avastin
and Olaparib (everywhere). I've had 4 sessions now, over 6 weeks.
