Vent time
Hi Everyone, I try not to vent here too much, as I know we all are struggling with some thing or another and we all know what it is like to have MBC. Good news is, I seem to be stable with Taxol. The cancer markers have gone down, pet scan shows that most of the lesions have decreased. Doc wants me

Ca125 Dropped since starting Weekly Treatments
Well Hello, Just finished my 4th treatment of weekly Taxol and by biweekly Avastin, which is going really well. Haven't lost hair yet except for my lady area which is weird, well guess it is saving me money from getting a wax...😂😂😂. And also no real side affects yet, knock on wood, just get tired

Stage lV brca- First recurrence
Hi this is my first time posting. I have stage IV serous and I am brca negative. I was diagnosed last year in November. I had chemo first because they decided I had too much cancer to operate at the time. Then I had the second part of chemo after surgery. I did great and was Ned for 6 months. I

Taxol
Just wondering if anyone else is having serious heartburn problems since the IV ranitidine is no longer available pre treatment. I now get two tablets (plus the usual dexamethazone and antihistimine before treatment) something like omeprazole one hour before chemo. This is the only thing that has changed

Continuing weekly taxol
Hope someone has some advice for me. I’ve had 18 weekly sessions of taxol and Avastin. My oncologist is giving me the option to continue the taxol or maintenance only with Avastin. I’m not sure if there is any benefit. Has anyone got experience our advice?

Taxol and me
Hi Dear Ladies, I just finished my third week of Taxol, having a week off this week, start again next week. I do feel it more than the other treatments but am thankful I don't feel too sick. The cooling system thing is kind of working for me, did not qualify for assistance, the pocket book is tight
