Update on previous post.
Taken all by surprise and whether it was the
Avastin
that had been holding it back which was stopped in March they don't know. So we are where we are, unfortunately and I have to have chemo to stop it, reduce it etc Which is, Carbo/Caelyx to start every 4 weeks asap.

How long do side effects linger?
After Carbo and Taxol, I did a year of 'maintenance'
Avastin
. I finished that in Feb 2021. I still have lots of pain (joints, muscles, etc) and still feel as tho I have chemo brain. Am I just crazy, or does it take a long time for the body to heal from all of these drugs?

Doxil and Hair Loss
Hello ladies - my oncologist will be placing me on Doxil with
Avastin
. I was searching previous posts on Doxil side effects but didn’t see anything on hair loss. For those who were on Doxil, did you lose your hair? Thank you.

Length of stabilization of wet MD?
I am being treated for wet MD in both eyes with
Avastin
. It has been stable for 10 weeks and I have not needed shots, which makes me very happy. The plan is to monitor me every 4 weeks. I would love to hear from others about how long their eyes remained stable.

Rising CA125
I completed 6 cycles of chemo (carbo, taxol plus
avastin
) in early October with a CA125 of 16 (op was in July). I have continued with
Avastin
. My scan in mid Jan was okay but my blood test last week shows my CA125 is now 23.

Still clear
It’s three years tomorrow since my last chemo and 2 years 4 months since I finished
Avastin
. I know I am extremely lucky as the prognosis at diagnosis was not good. Stage 4, with cancer all over the place. I hope that my situation gives some hope to those recently diagnosed.

Covid vax and ca125
I’m currently on Doxil and
Avastin
. Had my first Pfizer vax on 3/4, then my lab draw on 3/11. My CA125 had been 74 and dropping. I just looked at my labs and my CA125 has spiked to 104.

Reply to TR77
I have had chemo , radical debulking and an ileostomy ( but a tiny amount of tumour is left on the small intestine) , more chemo and now 3 weekly
Avastin
. My Ca125 is finally 139. I have stopped worrying about the Ca125 level and just concentrate and eating well and being positive .

Anyone had decent remission WITHOUT maintenance therapy after 1st line treatment for Stage 4 OC?
I mean WITHOUT maintenance therapy (
Avastin
/Niraparib etc). I would like to try without them as
Avastin
does not agree with me (for max. 4 months extra remission!) . And Niraparib (for possibly better tumour free longevity) seems to also come with terrible side effects.
