last chemo
I saw my oncologist yesterday and was told that PET scan I had a week ago was clear. and my CA125 was down to 100. so no more chemo required, however I was to have
Avastin
every 3 weeks as maintenance. When I asked how long I was to be on
Avastin
, he said until or when the cancer return's.

Ascites
I've had carbo platol, gemzar carbo with
avastin
. Then doxil. My tummy has always been large since diagnosis but seems more uncomfortable lately. I have days when I can go all day not wanting to pass urine.

Travel insurance
I'm having
avastin
for 18 cycles after chemo so don't know if that is causing the price to be so high. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

Starting chemo
She agreed to defer adding
avastin
and taxol until the next time, as I have a graduation ceremony on the 17th which I want to be reasonably healthy for. Feeling apprehensive!

That time again 😕
I'm going in for my bloods tomorrow ahead of my
Avastin
on Thursday and the tears have started 😢 I'm so worried about what my CA125 is going to be, it had slowly started raising and although my scan was clear and I have another one booked for Oct, doc keeping a very close eye on me I just feel shitty

PPC
But on reading my last letter it said, progression on
avastin
to stop and commerce on palliative caelyex. If you look at my profile you will see I am now on paclitaxel. What is upsetting me is seeing the palliative word, was told there was no cure but it is treatable.

Avastin
Can anyone give me an idea on what side effects to expect on
avastin
?? Didn't think to ask the onc what to expect?? I'm hoping it's not as bad as chemo?? Thanks Mandy

Long time healing??
This was followed by more chemo/
avastin
which ended on 26th Feb now on
avastin
every 3weeks until November. 2 CT scans are clear up to 5th July. My abdomen feels tender to touch especially under bust, find walking a lot or doing housework etc ( perhaps too much ) have to take painkillers.

Question about Avastin
She is now completing her final 3 cycles of taxol/carboplatinum but her doctors have advised 18 months of
Avastin
as a continuing treatment. I am a little confused as I thought
Avastin
was 2nd line treatment which is offered if the cancer returns. What could this mean for mum?

Fun and Games
Anyway, I asked for my CA25 results and they have dropped from over 400 after my op to 14, and that is on the Carbo/Taxol only as I hadn't started the
Avastin
then. As you can imagine, I am in high Spirits today!

Ct scan results
I am starting
avastin
with my last carbo treatment hopefully this Friday. I think I will be more pleased once the chemo is finished.

Feeling down
I am having the
Avastin
for 16 sessions at 3 weekly intervals, so having been telling myself that I am almost half way through the treatment, I am now facing well into next year. Is it usual to have this cocktail? I live alone, and just wanted to share all this with someone.

Avastin side effects
Hello lovely ladies Have any of you experienced a sort of nettle rash sensation but not a rash? It's on the top half of my left arm and pretty much stings 24/7... quite strange really. This is now my 8th cycle but 6 cycles with chemo. Love Michelle x

Positive news
I am halfway thru chemo, operation in 2 weeks, then 3 more cycles of Carbo/Taxel/
Avastin
. I'd kinda written myself off, having been diagnosed with possible PPC, or maybe Ovarian 3c that has metastasised, who knows.......but the results were great!
