Peritoneal Carcinoma
I did 6 rounds of Carboplatin/Taxol the first two times and currently on Carboplatin/
Doxil
for six rounds with 2 more to go. I am in desperate need of support. I am trying to stay strong, positive, and taking each day as it comes. I am trying so hard not to give up hope and keep the faith.

My cancer markers have jumped from 104 to 483 after two weeks on afinitor. My doctor now wants to put me on Doxil. Any one else had this?
Now, my oncologist wants to put me on
Doxil
, provided that I pass an echo ultrasound of my heart. Has anyone else used
Doxil
successfully? I hear that it is called "the red devil." This doesn't ease my anxiety.

Crummy news at MD Anderson
Doxil
(different name in UK) is next for me. Wasn’t expecting this at all. Kind of in shock and feel this is a game changer. I’ll search for posts on this drug. Can anyone help me with the name used for the drug in UK? Thanks

Gemzar
So in the 2 cycles of taking Ibrance/Letrozole it did more harm than good so she wants to start me on Gemzar , she agreed with me that
Doxil
is too harsh. My other Oncologist wanted to start me on
Doxil
. Have anyone ever heard of Gemzar or have taken it?

My Journey
I stayed in remission for 18 months then in May 2017, I had a reoccurrence and started Carbo and
Doxil
; luckily my body is very responsive to the "Pure Love". I started the maintenance drug Lynparza in December 2017 and have been cancer free since then.

OvarIan 3C Avastin & Doxil
Doxil
side effects were manageable rashes, mouth sores, joint pain, extreme fatigue. Being at a nci certified cancer center is wonderful.

Doxil and Avastin
Hey guys I just wanted to know what to expect from this drug combination I had my first round and felt pretty good had very few side effects. Should I expect this through out my whole treatment or is it cumulative? Please let me know your experiences with this drug. I’m clear cell stage 2c grade

Avastin rare side effects
My mom started
Doxil
and Avastin for her first reoccurence of OC seven months ago. Mid-way (roughly August) through the cycle - Avastin was stopped due to high blood pressure, protein in the urine, and severe headaches.

It's back.
She wants to do more carboplatin with the drug
Doxil
which just sounds horrific. She said it's better tolerated than Taxol, but it doesn't sound that way to me, and she said I won't lose my hair again which is actually not true and I'm wondering why she would have told me that.
