feeling shocked
Hi folks, i've not posted for a while as been having 6th line chemo of carboplatin and
caelyx
since March and been fairly well on it. It seemed to be working as CA125 went down nicely and then my white cells were really low and i had a long gap after the 4th session.

Travel Insurance
I am just starting 2nd line chemo, carboplatin and
caelyx
. I understand it will be for 6 sessions every 4 weeks, I am needing to get travel insurance for Europe. I read that many ladies do a lot of travel, and therefore must have found affordable travel insurance.

Pet scan results
Had my pet scan on the 25th August after 6 months chemo ( carboplatin plus
caelyx
) then 7 months of maintenance on
caelyx
. Saw my oncologist 31st August, not happy with pet scan results -- cancers that were inactive are now active again plus I have new ones so maintenance chemo didn't work!!

Need to embrace some positivity!
Am on day 10 following 1st
caelyx
and God the struggle is real! Was absolutely fine for 2 days and then everything hit! Have been pretty sick but that has improved now - just feel permanently shattered! Also crying constantly - no idea why!

Chemo not working
I had 4 Carbo/
Caelyx
before this with only a month's break so this is not a good situation to be in. Has anyone on this site been told that there will be no more chemo as I'm dreading the thought of this. What do they do next, radiotherapy or wait for a while and then more chemo? Lovis x

Stent discomfort
I am on my fourth infusion of
caelyx
. Does anyone know if this stent will be permanent , It gets worse all the time and I really dont know if I can tolerate it. The stent has been changed and is still the same .

Caelyx/carboplatin not working - what's next in the pot???
After two cycles of
caelyx
and carbo my CA125 is still rising steeply. It's risen to 4600 which is an increase of over 1000 in a month. The oncologist said that this regime is a slow releasing drug, but after 2 cycles they would have liked to have seen a reduction.

Wiped out with the caelyx carbo
I had my first
caelyx
/carbo combination on Friday and have been in bed mostly asleep until now! It has floored me. Is this how it will be for the next 5? Maybe I had forgotten how awful the first few days can be after all my other mixes of chemo.
