Debulking Surgery
Can anyone tell me what are the best briefs following
debulking
surgery
? I know with a c section you need ‘big pants’ but what is best for a vertical incision? Thank you in advance.

Covid protection during chemotherapy
I was diagnosed in 2020 with stage 3C OC and I had
debulking
surgery
followed by carpotoxal chemotherapy which finished in July 2020. Since then I have had my covid vaccine plus 3rd and 4th booster.

Bowel obstruction after debulking surgery
I had complete hysterectomy and
debulking
surgery
3.5 weeks ago. Getting a barium enema tomorrow to find out more where obstruction is. This is so discouraging as I just feel like it’s 3 steps forward and 2 steps back.

Surgical wound not healing
Hi everyone It is 5 weeks since I had my
debulking

Good News.
I was diagnosed 4a, had 6 chemo,
debulking
surgery
and have had 1 post op chemo (final one to do tomorrow). On Monday my Oncologist gave me my last scan results and they were clear of disease with my CA125 at 18. I am still processing this huge news, I didn't believe I would ever get here.

CA125 has risen post surgery. AND Sore and weak and feet and ankles post chemo.
All looked good after
debulking
surgery
but now after round 5 and 6 the ca125 was at 424 and then 404. Any ideas? Also I get really bad neuropathy in my toes and sore ankles post chemo, Is there a way of combatting that or am I just too impatient to get get out walking with my dog?

After 3 rounds of carboTaxol I responded well enough for
debulking
surgery
on Xmas eve. This was successful and in Feb 2021 my scan showed NED, was then put on a maintenance drug Bevacizumab and will have my last one on the 16th Feb 2022. I'm also non BRAC.

Internal scar tissue perhaps?
Hi all, I had
debulking
surgery
back in July (including resectioning of paracardiac and paraortic lymph nodes) and every so often if I yawn or something I get a pain right hand side of my ribs, might this be internal scar tissue? Has anyone else experienced this please? Thankyou and stay safe X
