CA125 levels
Hi everyone, my mum was diagnosed stage 4 ovarian cancer in January 2018 she is currently on
Avastin
maintenance and her CA125 has slowly been going up however she had a result today and it has doubled to over 300 😢😢 she had a scan a few weeks ago and they said they couldn’t see anything.

Ascites and drain
I am due to start Immunotherapy in 2-3 weeks as I feel I have exhausted most other options with Carboplatin/ Taxol cisplatin,
avastin
and now olaparib too. Has anyone had a successful drain without going straight onto chemotherapy I am fearful it will build up again fast while I am waiting.

Update
The plan is to continue with
Avastin
and keep an eye on it, which means another scan in a few months. I am feeling well, except for some minor
Avastin
side effects, and trying to enjoy living, but these things constantly play on my mind. Love to you all Grace

Acrylic Nails
Morning to you all, I’m au natural short nails girl but
Avastin
has wrecked them and they seem to spit very easily causing a lot of pain. I wondered if having acrylics (short) over the top would help strengthen and protect them. Do any of you have this done?

Sector laser with Lucentis injection for Diabetics Macular edema
She is already taken 5
avastin
injection, followed by given one ozurdex implant but not sufficient progress. Then she was given accentrix injection and focal laser. After that few progress was shown. But after two months later, during normal follow up, the edema problem occurred again.

Recurrence #3
My doctor started me on taxol/Carbo/
Avastin
and my ca125 went from 331 to 48. Right before my last treatment my ca125 rose to 54. I have a ct scan Friday, March 1 and will do
Avastin
for maintenance every 3 weeks. I’m really nervous since I feel like my treatment drugs are limited.

Avastin
Oncologist said her scans have been great but have encouraged her to take the
Avastin
along with her front line treatment. She is worried about the side affects. A week ago she finally told me she was on board. I was releaved up until today in which she told me she changed her mind.

Not trying to offend anyone, only trying to help others get through it the best way i know how,
I went through all the treatment, chemo surgery
avastin
, and i have a good understanding of what it entails, the only reason i post quotes about spiritual realization is to try and help others ,

**UPDATE ON MY MUMS FIRST SCAN RESULTS FOLLOWING FIRST LINE CHEMO**
It does state that she won't be having another scan until the end of her
avastin
in Sept unless her ca125 starts rising or she gets symptomatic. So let's hope and pray and keep everything crossed 🤞 Thank you to everyone who posted on my previous post Sarah x

CA125 stress
Praise God (and wonderful NHS) am in remission. now on
Avastin
until July. Finding the CA125 test every three weeks very stressful. Mine was through the roof before treatment and now it’s at 11.5. What I worry about is that it was 10 before that and 7 / 8 during treatment.

How often do you see your Oncologist?
Is it every three weeks whilst undergoing chemo or
Avastin
and then less frequently when not receiving treatment. Do you see an Oncology nurse or Pharmacist if you don't see your Oncologist? thank you, Sticky3006

Avastin and 2nd line chemo, Aurelia trial?
Is there anyone her who either took part in the Aurelia trial and had the
Avastin
or anyone who has had
Avastin
along with 2nd line chemo? If so what were the results? Do you feel with
Avastin
was worth the risk (given high side effects?) Thank you!

Stopping Avastin
I know that if anything rears it’s head it’ll be Chemo as well as
Avastin
, but it’s a gamble I’ve decided to take. It’s been non stop treatment since I was diagnosed in October 2017, so a break is going to be very welcome. Have a good weekend everyone. Joy 😘
