Anyone take
Caelyx
? What are the side effects? How did you handle it? Worse than other chemos? Or no?

Third time lucky?
When the cancer was obviosly still there in January the oncologist started me on
Caelyx
which for me had few side effects and my hair grew back. Now we are into autumn the cancer is still active causing more pleural effusion so I am now on Paclitaxel alone weekly for 18 weeks.

Run out of chemo options. Clinical Trials now
I had hoped to have another bash on
Caelyx
but due to a build up of all the drugs I have been on continually, without any remission, the contractability of my left ventricle has reduced and so my oncologyst will not risk anymore Doxorubisin (
Caelyx
) type drugs which are known to have adverse effects

Cyclophosphamide
Caelyx
but interim scan showed progression. Moved onto Topotecan and expecting result of interim scan this week or next. I am considering a trial which includes cyclophosphamide as the control arm and would welcome any info anyone may have had this therapy.

3rd line chemo and worried
I started
caelyx
as 3rd line treatment 2 weeks ago for PPC.I only had 6 months in between treatments. This time I have had 2 paracentesis prior to chemo and one a week ago and drained 9 litres. I wondered if anyone else on
caelyx
and how it affects you.

Taxotere Versus Caelyx
ONC has said I can have Taxotere or I can stick with the
Caelyx
but is not really advising me which is best.

I start my 3rd line of chemo next Fri 26th Sept which will be
Caelyx
. I am a very positive person but sometimes it is hard to stay focused and I am struggling at the moment coming to terms with another round of chemo. Any words of wisdom would be appreciated. Many thanks Sue xx

I can reach out from Australia.
I am doing
caelyx
and carboplatin. My hair has started thinning but I still have a pretty good coverage. It seems this second go round is harder somehow. Good luck everyone.

Caelyx
Veronique, my hair has grown back while on
Caelyx
. Yes I have had a couple of mouth ulcers, but nothing that makes life unbearable. Sore feet - blisters - were also bearable although uncomfortable. Regular washing and creaming helped. Good luck

Update
Hi everyone, so after x4 months of
Caelyx
hoping to shrink the cancer it has done nothing. So since it hasn't got bigger and hasn't shrinked in size I'm Now just having more cat scans. What worriesme is that my ca125 marker went up to 30 and it's never been that high ever it's only ever been 17.

My hair is coming out on pillow a lot now, if I am going to lose all my hair how long will it take?
After 3 lots of carboplatin have had my second lot of
caelyx
2 days ago and my hair is noticably coming away now. Just wonder if this is normal and if it keeps getting worse or suddenly falls out completely. Not had noticable hair loss before just thinning. Any advice on when to get a wig, hat.
