Too long between surgery and chemo?
Ann was supposed to have
Avastin
alongside but the oncologist decided she wasn't well enough. Whilst waiting for chemo she developed very painful build up of ascites and had 4.5 litres drained prior to stating chemo.

Will be taking weekly taxol and
Avastin
. I’m told it’s pretty tolerable, which I’m all about. Any advise for what I can expect to feel with respect to side effects?

Avastin and ca 125 level going up
Has anyone had ca 125 levels to creep up with
Avastin
alone. Mines went from 37,43,56,78, and now 140. But my ct scans are clear.

Silicone bubble returns
Anyway, I wish I had known it a few years ago, and switched from
Avastin
sooner. I do understand that in the UK the syringe problem might not exist, and, as a treatment for AMD the
Avastin
had been working okay for me otherwise. The Eylea is working equally well now.

Adriamycin anyone?
So after Ibrance, Taxol, Fulvestrant,
Avastin
(still taking Fulvestrant and Denosumab), Xeloda. It looks like my next port of call is either more Taxol (which I found fine for the first 17 weeks) or Adriamycin. Anyone tried this?

Infuriating
Now there are trials for parps plus
avastin
or parps plus immuno but we have to know about them which is another problem. We have to become our own researchers for treatments as well as how best to survive the chemicals we live with.

Facial rash
Hi Ladies looking for a little advice I'm now on weekly taxol with
avastin
every 3 weeks, first cycle of taxol is complete, not finding it too hard, a little shortness of breath, my major concern is I have facial flushing with an angry rash, my team have given me steroids to take for two days after infusion

Lots of black & circular floaters + bloodshot eye after my last Avastin injection. Should I worry?
I have been having regular
Avastin
shots for 18 months, with no progression of the wet MD. I've had floaters before, but not this many so frequently. I've also had large black circular floaters (from the glycerin used in the packing, from what I've read) which eventually disappeared.

Peritoneal serous cancer
I had 6 sessions of chemo and now on
avastin
until November. I had a ct scan end of December which came Back NED. but I had ct, mri, and ultrasound scans. None of these showed up my cancer the way they found it was through a laparoscopy.
