News on last CT scan and scars on lung
He wants to give me 2 months break before putting me back on chemo, accompanied with
Avastin
. At first I was ok with the news, but the more I dwell on it the more sad and depressed I feel. I don't really know why, except I suppose I was hoping for a better outcome.

Anyone on Avastin in UK
Hi my onc added this to list of meds. I looked it up and saw that it was banned for breast cancer in the US years ago as the risk of side effects outweighed benefits. Getting worried now ( my oncologist looks near to retirement so I am worried he is not up to date)

Need more information from people with same problems.
I have been treated with
avastin
,ozurdex,and now Eyelea for 6 years. My central vision is gone in the treated eye. Vision is just finger counting. My saving grace is my 20/20 good eye. I was starting to get the injections every 2 months and the last 2 visits 7 weeks and 6 weeks apart.

Avastin?
I read that a lot of you lovely ladies are on
Avastin
. What exactly is it? It's never been mentioned to me by my health professionals. Also, does it work?

Is anyone taking NSAIDs with their Taxols? It seems that research indicates that the effectiveness of Taxols may be extended.
I have seen little indication of this on these pages bu would be interested as a Paclitaxel and lately an
Avastin
patient.

Stage 4b Ovarian CA125 Life expentancy.
I am now having
Avastin
every 3 weeks. My CA125 is 16. Has anyone been through a similar journey how long will I have, before it's starts taking hold again? I'm desperate to know how long other ladies were given, I just think I can settle better if I know. Probably just having a bad day!

Update: Bye bye, Avastin. It's been a dubious pleasure.
That said, I subsequently agreed with my oncologist to stop
Avastin
after all. Bowel damage (however minor) &
Avastin
is just a scary combination in my mind, even though I had hoped to continue with it for a while at least. So.. no more
Avastin
, which also means no more bloodpressure meds.

Chemo Resistance?
Just when you start coping with the side effects of the one - Paclitaxel -
Avastin
has its own!

Cancer Returns
Yesterday I went for my usual once every 3 weeks
Avastin
treatment at the Macmillan Cancer Centre UCLH. I met with my lovely oncologist Dr Miller and was given some results, blood and latest CT scan. She sat closer than usual but it didn't register. She gave me dreadful sad news. My ca125 is 60.

Olaparib or not?
Avastin
followed and I have been treatment free since this January. My CA125 is currently 9, so all is well. My dilemma is that following genetic counseling I am BRAC1, this is a changed diagnosis as originally it was negative (!?!?). My oncologist is talking about Olaparib.

Vaginal pain, anal pain, nearly 4 years on and feeling desperate!
Hi all, am new here as am at my wits end trying to find a way forward with my ongoing issues. I was diagnosed with vaginal atrophy 4 years ago ( since found out due to a lack of oestrogen) even though I was on HRT. As I was bleeding I was taken off my HRT until they could eliminate any nasties. This

Just on Avastin now
I’ve done Chemo, and will just be on
avastin
now for 12 months- does anyone know if
avastin
affects your blood count so you can’t have it. Twice I had my chemo put back and had to have an injection for it, but don’t know if that was because of chemo or
avastin
. Thanks for any advice
