Skin metastasis? UPDATE
As I only finished second line Carbo/
Caelyx
in March I am now deemed platinum resistant. I think I’ll try to have a PICC line inserted as I’m dreading cannulation as my veins are small and move about! Any advice anyone re regime and/or PICC lines? Best wishes to you all.

Caelyx and CA125
I am currently having Carbo/
Caelyx
for first small recurrence. After the 1st cycle my CA125 went from 55.5 to 20, after the 2nd it went to 17, after 3rd it was 19, then had completely clear midway scan, but just found out that after my 4th it’s gone to 26.

Hi all I’ve just had a complete response to Carbo/
Caelyx
for 1st recurrence and am back in remission. I found that regime tough to say the least. Having been off chemo for a few weeks I’ve finally started to feel ‘normal’ again.

Sorry to keep moaning.
As previously stated I started second line treatment of carbo/
caelyx
last Thursday 11 days ago. I just feel so exhausted. I dont remember feeling like this for so long last time on carbo/taxol. I promised myself I would keep on working part time as I'm working from home now.

About to have my third chemo of Caelyx
Caelyx
seems to be much harder than my previous 6 treatments of Paclitaxol and Carboplatin. Mouth full of ulcers, very sore, hard to eat. Very tired and losing strength

Update on MDT meeting Friday the scan
They have also stated that I have had an excellent response to the carbo/
caelyx
and that the 3 lymph nodes have shrunk by over 50 percent and that I should look on all this news positively and to continue with the cycles left. I have to now move on from thus uncertainty and take the news as good.

Stage 4 Ovarian cancer and Caelyx
Just coming up to 3 rd chemo with
Caelyx
after having 6 treatments with Paclitaxel/ Carboplatin. I’m so tired, worried about losing strength and have a mouth full of ulcers, very hard to eat. Anybody with experience of coping with ulcers?

Thank you for dental advice.
It seemed like a gift as I am getting through my third cycle of carbo
caelyx
. If it comes back I am better prepared.

Sun sensitivity
I have had 1 infusion if carbo
caelyx
for my first reoccurrence and I am finding my skin is super sensitive and turns very red even when I walk out in the garden Just for 5 mins. Can deal with that by covering up, high factor sunscreen and staying in the shade .

No surgery
They want to try carbo/
caelyx
this time. My mind in turmoil at the moment. I have no family and live alone so have to be able to live independently. Wondering if its worth it as obviously no chance of cancer going away.

Disappointing result from CA 125 blood test after 10 weeks on Rucaparib. Can anyone help me to cope please?
The largest being 12cm. 6 months of Carbo/
Caelyx
reduced them by 2 thirds but the tumours still remained.
