Cancer Coming Back!! Please give any advice on Weekly Taxol.
Hello to all you fellow sufferers . I send love to you all. I was first disgnosed in Sep 2010. I am just back from the oncologist , where after a three month break from chemo. (Gemcitibine and treosulfan) and being only on avastin, my CA125 has gone up slowly. It is now 77 and my Oncologist feels

If carbo/taxol steadied the disease before surgery will they suggest the same chemotherapy after surgery. If they do it seems illogical.
If
carbo
/
taxol
only made it a stable disease before they should suggest a different chemo or will they say
carbo
/
taxol
again.

Serous papillary-what chemo works?
They said theres no point trying with
taxol
carbo
again because it didnt work but I have heard people successfully having carboplatin only.

Mum's CA125 level now reduced to 175....
She was admitted to the hospice after 7 weeks low dose chemo (
Carbo
/
Taxol
) as an inpatient in hospital - with severe vomiting, dehydration, blood clot, ascites draining - all in all a bit of a nightmare time over Christmas and New Year.

How does ovarian cancer recur if you don't have ovaries anymore?
I am now on a chemo regime of
Carbo
/
Taxol
and had my second treatment today, apparently I will have 4 more.

Strange but true
I'm having my 4th round of chemo since being diagnosed. Each round has consisted of 2 drugs.Platinum + taxol or caelyx. But this round, I am having platinum alone. My ca 125 is coming down faster this time than last time.I assumed I was having a higher dose of platinum this time, but asked my consultant

Could it be back?
I had an excellent response to my chemo
carbo
/
taxol
and at the end of 6 sessions my CA125 was down to 30.5 (the highest was 290).

The differences between serous papillary and clear cell?
Hiah, I had serous pappillary on my ovary and had
carbo
and
taxol
- I recently found out I also had clear cell in my uterus but no one else has actually spoken about this to me. When I asked why?

The jam jar is getting fuller!
Like so many of us my news today was not brilliant. My ca 125 was raised from 380 to just over 1000. I was expecting it as over this last 5 years I have come to understand my body. I had 5th line chemo last october ... weekly taxol which brought my chemo down from 4000 to 380. The oncologist was very

Has anyone had their spleen and gallbladder removed during debaulking surgery?
My mother was diagnosed with stage 4 OC in Dec 11, had initial surgery, then 3 cycles of
carbo
/
taxol
chemo which was efficient in reducing CA125, then another extensive surgery (supra-radical) end of March when uterus/lymph nodes/spleen/gall bladder/pieces of colon were removed.

Why have they booked this 'extra' chemo?
I saw the consultant with her after the first rounds of chemo and she basically said it hadn't cleared as much of the cancer as they wanted and they wanted to do 3 rounds of
carbo
/
taxol
before operating. She seemed very definate that they would operate straight after this.

I have had one course of chemo carbo/taxol which my cancer did not respond to. I am awaiting a operation date.
Will they give me a different chemo drug after surgery?

Leg pain Taxol
I've had 2 rounds of
taxol
/
carbo
and my shins and feet kill. The first time lasted about 4 days. This time longer. Any suggestions for easing the pain would help. I'm on painkillers but had a reaction to them paracetomol doesn't help much.
