Bones ache
It’s been 90 Days since my last scan and mri of the brain and it showed NED especially I did 3 rounds of chemo Taxol. I’m dying with pain Motrin helps a little and I did mri the other day looking for Mets and I see my dr Tuesday but they never ordered a ct scan so my doc probably saw nothing in my brain

Ascites drain shutting bowel down and green bile sick.
Hey lovely ladies, some advice please. I have primary peritoneal cancer, on third line weekly taxol. Back in February I started being sick large amounts of green bile, it would build up over 4-6 hours till the pressure got to much and it would come out like something from horror film. Had a build up

Neutrophils
Hello I have been having weekly taxol. First was a series of weekly doses, all fine. Then three months off. Now I’m back on weekly does, first two were fine but my blood test for the third was low on neutrophils so sent home. I’ve now had a blood test again and they have dropped even lower so another

And the results....
The results were not great. Disease progression. Colon mets, mets in the mesentery, an apparent met on his left shoulder blade that we thought we would notice; and in his right elbow. It’s on the move again. He can’t do immunotherapy anymore because he has progressed on that, and now has progressed

Thank you all again from Laura Update on DICE Trial
Thanks to you all for your encouragement and the new reminder to all of us to NOT suffer in silence, but to let our CNS or our Chemo team know if we are not managing under our side effects. Today I am including a photo of my temporary image, as my lovely blonde locks are deserting me rapidly. This is

Bulletin! Update for Laura and the DICE Trial.
Thanks to everyone who wrote to me offering commiserations and support! The wonderful team admonished me for not calling them during the week, but now have taken everything under consideration and have decided to have me skip this week’s Taxol and the TAC228 and they will check up on me on Thursday.

More Laura & the DICE TRIAL
Well, turned out to be a hellish week. Lowering the Taxol did help the first two days, but now I realise how much the TAK228 is affecting me the rest of the week. I had awful unrelenting diarrhoea, and no matter how much Ondansetron and Loperamide I took, it was unstoppable. I nearly fainted before

Nearly three years on... reflections
Up until diagnosis I'd been perfectly healthy, so it was shocking to suddenly be in this terrible state, and to then go on to have
carbo
/
taxol
chemo, and be enrolled in a clinical trial to boot.

Second Surgery
Having had debulking surgery in June and 4/6 of Carboplatin and Taxol treatments I have now been told that I have 2 tumours on my sigmoid colon not responding and it has been recommended that this part of my bowel is cut out and rejoined. I am shocked to have to face surgery so soon as I thought treatments

Started Taxol again on Thursday....
Started Taxol again on Thursday afternoon, everything went well , had the cold cap no problems at all. Then at 2.30am Friday I started retching just bringing up a bit of bile ( I have had this problem many times in the past ). Then around 6.30 I was being sick quite badly, this continued until 10.30

Afinitor 10mg and exemestane 25mg
I've just done my first 4 weeks on this drug combination after 18 cycles of ibrance 125mg and faslodex. Not to pull punches it's been quite an awful month.

Joint pain on Carboplatin
Hello all My Mum has just had dose no 3 of carboplatin. Taxol abandoned due to severe allergy. She is suffering from awful joint pain after 3 days. I have read that Claritin helps, is this true and has anyone any other suggestion? Thank you so much in advance ladies Sarah

It’s back!
So looking like weekly
carbo

taxol
for 3 weeks with 1 week off for 6 months. Had this mix 5 years ago for first chemo and worked amazingly well going me over 3 years NED, so he wants to go down this route as he said I responded so well to it before.

Laura and the DICE Trial - Week 2
Hello everyone, Hope you all are as well as can be. So: Yesterday was my early morning train ride to London. A good friend came with me and let me lean on her to get to the platform. I was feeling a LOT better, much stronger, but definitely not my old energetic self from 7 days ago. We made it to the

Laura and the DICE Trial - Be Careful What You Wish For!
Well, I have been sick as a dog since Thursday afternoon. Basically the same side effects I suffered with first line, except, thank goodness, no bone pain! Just terrible debilitating fatigue, dizziness, loss of appetite, achy joints, sore throat and head ache. But what makes this even harder is that

No phase one trial for me at the moment
A little gutted that I can’t get on a phase one trial at the moment. The one I had hoped to get on required a new biopsy, after having an ultrasound to try and get this it was decided that it was just too dangerous. My tumours are still hiding and are difficult to get at . I have had mega constipation
