Make the days count....
I've had a tough day as started my second line chemo today. I'm back on same carbo/taxol and have felt low all day. First time I was so buoyant & went through everything with ease. I was on a mission to prove I would be cured, my oncologist always said long term control but I didn't want that! He has

High grade serous adencarcinoma
Last week I saw my doctor and he said I am in complete remission but will still need the three more chemos and most of next year on avastin. I was feeling quite happy about this. I've never wanted to know the grade of my ovarian cancer but received a letter today giving the histology results and that

Thoughts On Avastin
Today I had cycle 6 of 6 taxol/carbo having been diagnosed with stage 4a OC in June this year. I had surgery in Oct. My response to both has been excellent and today I feel healthy and energetic. My medical team are very encouraged by my response and don't think that at this time I could be any better

My Story
I was diagnosed with stage IV non-small cell adenocarcinoma of my lung in December of 2014 . The EGFR was exon 21, P.L 858R. I was diagnosed by going into cardiac tamponade with 870 ml of fluid. The fluid tested positive for the cancer and mutation. I had R supraclavicular, R paratracheal, subcarinal

Feeling positive.
Hi all. I've seen the doctor today. He said I'm doing really well. ๐๐ป I still need my three mop up chemos and a year on avastin but he said I'm in complete remission. Can hardly believe it. Just got to make sure the little gremlin doesn't rear its ugly head again. Xxxx

Elevated eosinophils at recurrence?
Hi, this is my first post, though I've been reading and visiting this site for a couple of months now. My mom has Ovarian cancer, Stage IV since August 2015, and finished her chemo in February, and has was stated to be NED, her CA-125 had dropped down to a 3, from a high of over 3,000 when first diagnosed

UTI's
Hi everyone, I thought I had posted a little while ago, but it seems to have got lost. Has anyone else had recurrent urine infections while on Avastin? These start (every time) 2 days after my treatment, and the GP is not going to keep giving me antibiotics. Now, the day of my scan results, I have woken

UTI's
Good morning everyone. Has anyone else had recurring UTI's while on Avastin? So far, 2 days after my treatment I develop an infection. It is not a case of needing to go to the loo frequently, I become completely incontinent, and have no control at all. Up to now, my GP has given me antibiotics which

Mastectomy on avastin
Hi guys, I am brca 1 and have decided to have a bilateral mastectomy as prevention to ever getting breast cancer. I am on avastin only after my chemo for oc stage 3c. I have just read that while on avastin the healing process takes longer. It's made me wonder if they will go ahead with this operation

About me
Hi For the last 3yrs I have been meeting with the remarkable Manchester W&M group and thought that it was high time I joined the Macular Society! I was diagnosed at St Paul's Eye Research Unit at the Royal Liverpool Hospital with choroidal melanoma (eye cancer) in 1994 after being under frequent observation

No more avastin?
Hi ladies. I met with my surgeon for post op meeting and he said I may not be given any more avastin. I've had 2 out of 18. I asked why and he said my oncologist will decide ( without answering my question as to why) I'm worried now. Is this a good thing or bad thing? Has anyone else had their avastin

Post op results. Feeling so low.
Hi all. I feel really low after my meeting. I wasn't given devastating news, guess just the reality that this disease doesn't go away. My surgeon got my tumours out after I had an excellent response to chemo. He told me today that I have microscopic clusters of cancer cells left in me. I'm due three
