A little Bonus from Volunteering
They say they have another research project in September for women who are on
Avastin
or have completed a course of the drug in the last 3 months. It was actually great fun and I'm definitely hoping to take part again.

CA125 503 to 493
What happens if it doesn't fall much further will I still go on to the
Avastin
as planned. Has anyone been in this situation. I'm on Gem, Carbo and
Avastin
. Should I be panicking? Lovis x

re car insurance
Had
Avastin
today and apart from being a little tired am fine. Have scan in three weeks with
Avastin
, I am taking a chance getting two in the one day but it is tempting to do it all in the one go. This way VHI pays for the scan as you are deemed an in patient when getting chemo.

The little b******s have got me again!
GemCarbo this time with
Avastin
. Last time I had Carbotaxol and it gave me such excrutiating leg pain I got the taxol dose reduced a bit. Can anyone tell me if leg pain is a side effect of this new chemo and if so what to do to reduce or control it. Forewarned is forearmed!

Summer Weather,
I am wondering if any of you on
Avastin
feel the same as me. I have returned to work doing shorter hours. Last week was my first week and although tiring, it was good to have a structure to my week. I had gone dreadful moping around the house.

Is anyone on Avastin with high blood pressure - does the bp eventually level out or keep going up and if so how quickly?
My mum has been put on
Avastin
after 6 months of chemo - her bp seems sto be rising very quickly and just wondered if this has happened to anyone else? I rather hoped she would be on
Avastin
for quite some time yet.

Question about HRT for 36yo after oophorectomy
It's hard to say if I am experiencing some other symptoms like restlessness and fatigue as a result of surgical menopause or because I'm going through chemo (taxol/carbo/
avastin
).

Is avastin given in the UK for longer than 12 months ?
My oncologist has said that I will finish my 3 weekly
avastin
treatment after a year but I have heard from people in the US who have been on it longer. Does anyone know if that happens here ?
