Hello everyone - introducing me!
I'm on weekly chemo - part of the ICON8B trial, which is messing up my veins - and having
Carboplatin
, Taxol and Bevacizumab (Avastin). Two cycles in, lots more treatment to come. Coping well so far. Hoping the tumour will be reduced enough by end of June to enable the operation.

Clear Cell is back
Carboplatin
as still sensitive and Caelyx, monthly for Six sessions. Iv read all the different side effects on here but I just hope that my back pain and around my kidney can be managed as I find it very difficult to sit or lie at the moment.

Joint Pain
I finished my chemo of
carboplatin
and taxol on 30th January this year. About 6 weeks after I started to get joint pain. Mainly my knees ,wrists and nuckles. I frequently wake up in the night where my hands have gone numb. I also have pains in my feet.

Side effects
Had
carboplatin
and Caelyx last Tuesday. Felt fine until Friday. Never suffered any side effects from Chemo in the past. Now feel lousy really bloated and stomach hurts when I try to walk. Back seems to be aching too. Has anyone else had side effects from Caelyx.

Paclitaxel reaction
Had my second round of Paclitaxel and
Carboplatin
on Thu. Unfortunately took a bad reaction to taxel. To go back to consultant to see what I can get next. Disappointed as I felt I was getting somewhere (in my head).

Update "next plan"
This will now be harder than
carboplatin
and alimta. Really scared...... they say I will lose my hair just when it finally came back. Plus a host of other side effects. I will need the neulasta shot after 2days of treatment to keep immune system up.

Cramping
I had 6 cycles of the standard
carboplatin
/taxol. My CA125 has hovered around 7.6 since my first chemo May '16. My CT scan was clear back in October. Have any of you experienced this? It really has been bothering me that it may be coming back.

Help and advice please? I'm new here!
The chemo regime has been
Carboplatin
, Paclitaxel and Bevacizumab every 3 weeks. She has been at home for 5 weeks now but has been quite poorly throughout with only a couple of days where she felt slightly back to normal although she has tried to stay positive and fight it.

Failed Debulking Surgery
These three sessions of chemo are dose dense
Carboplatin
/Paclitaxel. I have ongoing issues with constipation, probable related to motility issues from all the adhesions and the tumor positions.

Allergic Reaction to Carboplatin
Taxol And
Carboplatin
. Fifteen minutes before completion, I went into anaphylactic shock. Dr. said I could not have
Carboplatin
again. Has anyone else experienced this and what did you use on recurrence? That's what scares me, what are my next options going to be?
