On a journey
I have since been switched from
Avastin
to Lucentis. Has anyone else experienced this? And reported it, hopefully?

Need help with Avastin side affects
My question is has anyone out there been on
Avastin
as a stand alone and stopped. I'm wondering what your side affects were after stopping and how long they lasted.

Hey there wishing every one well I am back in treatment after two years of no treatment - they put me on Doxil once a month and
Avastin
2xmo. The Doxil is Chemo and the
Avastin
is an immunotherapy drug - so far so good side effects are not that bad!

I have just finished 24 weeks of carbo platin and gemcitabine with 3 weekly
avastin
. Unfortunately CA125 is rising again and am looking at 3rd line chemo.

Looking for others experiencing a seemingly permanent floater from silicone oil after Avastin injection
Hoping to get a picture of why this occurred. Was it the compounding lab? Is there still a chance of it going away? ( it has been 6 months). Switched to Lucentis since, so far, so good. It is beyond annoying: the shape and size of an olive slice. White/almost fluorescent center.

Ca125
I'm happily settling into remission with
Avastin
, but today my CA125 has come back as 9. I have had a hacking cough/virus but I'm panicked that this is the start of it all again. I know it's only 1 point but I'm feeling sick with worry. Has this happened to anyone else?

Avastin and less-common side effects, esp. joint pain.
Mine does not think so and has said that the only way we could be sure is by stopping the
Avastin
to see if it improves. My last CT scan showed the metastases were "significantly regressed" so
Avastin
is working and I don't want to stop it.

Avastin

Private pay for evaluation and Avastin
Any idea what the damage might be for a visit for eval or
Avastin
injection? I'm in the US but I can get an idea and interpret the numbers... Many thanks.

Avastin cancelled and CA125 rising.
My
avastin
was cancelled today as I had too much protein in my urine. I often have it when I do a sample but I did a 24 hour sample and there was too much protein so treatment was cancelled. Will have it after my holiday. Also my CA125 was 54. It was 40 last time and lower each previous time.

Got sick and woke up with blurry vision.
My RS said there is swelling behind the eye, but it's gone down tremendously since my
avastin
shot. I saw in the photos first hand it has. I just remain very worried because it was all so sudden and he hasn't officially diagnosed the cause. He said it could have been a bite or some infection.

Afraid of a wet AMD relapse.
Dear All, I had several years of
Avastin
for Wet AMD in my right eye by a fantastic specialist and was discharged as cured about 5 years ago. I still had some light loss and a little distortion in the right eye and will forever.

CA125
I was 3C in Jan 2015 and CA was 700, I had debulking surgery in Dec 2015 followed by 6 rounds of carbo/taxol with 18 rounds of
Avastin
... long may all this continue. I wanted to share as at the beginning of my diagnosis I was totally devastated as we all know this feeling.

Avastin...cough?
My mother has been on
avastin
over a year now and has had a dry tickly cough since starting it. She's doing great on
avastin
so def won't be stopping that. Oncologist doesn't think it's a side effect of
avastin
. Are any of ye on
avastin
and had this?

Has anyone been able to lose the weight that they gained during chemo? If so how did you do it?
I've finished 8 sessions of taxol/Carbo and
avastin
end of last December. I've started a new line of Femara+Ibrance+
avastin
in January. Even though I insisted on stopping steroids during this new line of treatment I'm gaining weight like crazy.

Update
Mentioned
Avastin
and Parp Inhibitors specifically Olaparib. So the answer is got was that
Avastin
was only used as a first line treatment and as my mum has now had a reccurance she would not be suitable for this.
