Oncologist appointment results as promised.
He’s quite happy for me to stay on the
hycamtin
for now as I’ve no side effects and in October I’ll have another scan to see how I’m doing. He said that my CA125 is not really a good marker for me. It is the scans which indicate the progress or not of the cancer.

I'm going to have some "me" time. Hooray!!
After the carbo/caelyx fiasco I managed just one dose of
hycamtin
and then the blood counts plummeted even further down. Got shingles too on top of it all.
