Disappointment on the DICE trial
Hello everyone, I hope you all are doing well in your own personal battles. Meanwhile, I have just entered the 6th cycle of the DICE trial, where I have been on the trial arm of weekly Taxol and three days of the trial drug, TAK228 each week for five months. This trial has not been a walk in the park

Back to my oncologist this afternoon to hear the result of my scan - anyone on weekly taxol?
Just got home yesterday from doing my scan in time for my oncologist to call telling me he was going to bring forward my scan to which I informed him I had just had it. Well apart from the disorganization, he wanted to know if I had heard from London - to which I had to reply no (will be calling them

Strange side effects
I am currently undergoing chemo for triple negative breast ca completed AC and on 4 of 12 of taxol. Wondering if anyone else has any aches or pain in legs at night from this drug? I also have MS and concerned it might be a relapse but never had any leg issues with my MS.

Scan results mixed 😢
Hi Girls, Feeling scared as after two months off chemo (Taxol) my livers mets have progressed to the same size as they had reduced to after nine weeks on Taxol. My lung and spine mets are stable. So basically it is back to chemo for as long as I can take it. I will move from my Fulvestrant break (with

Goodbye Xeloda, Hello Taxol or Abraxane
Well, I got almost 7 months out of Xeloda, with blessedly few side effects. But my last CT scan showed that liver mets have increased, a lot, so it's time to move on. I would love to hear of your experiences with Taxol or Abraxane. I think I'm most worried about the solvent Cremophor that is needed

Clear cell stage 2 ovarian - should my mum have chemo?
My mum had a large cyst removed from her right ovary (which was attached to old endometriosis onto the pelvic wall). Also had full hysterectomy too. The cyst ruptured during surgery and so the consultant has recommended carboplatin / Taxol chemotherapy 6 cycles in 3 week sections. They completed several

Tamoxifen?
My mum has now been moved on to maintenance oral drug Tamoxifen.. after having 23 weekly taxols for 4 small liver mets. She had good response from the taxol but her oncologist wants her to have a break from it as she’s had a lot so on to tamoxifen. Had anyone had any experience with this? My mum is 60

Whine whine whine
Thank you for being here. I am new here. I am angry, scared and exhausted. And apparently no one in my household can offer support as I was just told to suck it up; at least I'm beating it and at least I'm not dead. So again, I thank you for being here to listen to me whine. I was diagnosed with triple

Navelbine
Has anyone been on Navelbine? I just started n wondering if this will be effective or not. Seems like an easy treatment, after Taxol.
