Covid vax and ca125
Good morning ladies! Wow, I just had a shock. I’m currently on Doxil and Avastin. Had my first Pfizer vax on 3/4, then my lab draw on 3/11. My CA125 had been 74 and dropping. I just looked at my labs and my CA125 has spiked to 104. I feel strongly this is die to the vaccine and will put the second dose

DVT in Left Iliac Vein
Hello Beautiful Ladies.I was diagnosed with Ovarian Ca 18 months ago. I actually have no ovaries as they and the tubes were removed 10 years ago due to benign cysts. So it turned out to be peritoneal Ca. Same tissue apparently. It has been a rocky road - 6 months of chemo and Avastin last year. The

Anyone had decent remission WITHOUT maintenance therapy after 1st line treatment for Stage 4 OC?
Have any Stage 4 OC patients gone into a long/decent remission after 1st line chemo (& surgery) only? I mean WITHOUT maintenance therapy (Avastin/Niraparib etc). I would like to try without them as Avastin does not agree with me (for max. 4 months extra remission!) . And Niraparib (for possibly better

Avastin sinuses
I’ve been on three-weekly Avastin since April/May last year, and am mostly doing really well. But in addition to achy feet and ankles, I have a constant runny nose, and along with it occasional sinus-y headaches. One of those has hit today and I’m feeling sorry for myself, so wanted to ask if anyone

Is Avastin actually worth the terrible side effects?
I’m on 4 of 6 first line chemo for stage 3b/4a HG OC. My doc offered me the option of starting Avastin before the last one & I did (15 months). Since then I’ve had terrible bowel probs (I had a stoma reversal before my 3rd chemo) & really awful aches in legs, bum & feet. I can’t clear bowels properly

Sore mouth, ulcers, avastin.
Had avastin added to my carbo/taxol regime two weeks a go. For the last 10 days I ha ve had a painful, sore burning mouth and ulcers on my tongue. I’ve been using the mouthwashes from the hospital, which haven’t really helped but sting a lot! Anyone else suffer with this and how long does it last?

Doxil and Avastin
Hello all, has anyone had Doxil and Avastin together after front line recurrence? If so, how did you tolerate that combo? Thank you Sashay

Lots of muscle pain in arms, maybe Olaparib?
Hi everyone. I'm 9 months out of chemo, on olaparib daily and Avastin every 3 weeks. On the Care Oncology Center protocol of Atorvastatin/Metformin/Mebendazole/Doxycycline. I have INSANE amounts of muscle pain and weakness in my arms only and can't pinpoint it. COC took me off statin for 3 weeks,

DOXIL Tips
Hi All. I have been on maintenance with Avastin every 3 weeks and then oral Cytoxin was added as Ca-125 continued to climb. I started in the 80’s after completing Gemzar/Carbo/Avastin. My scans looked great 2 months ago in spite of my rising Ca 125. I started having increased non-specific abdominal wall

New regime for Primary Peritoneal grade 4 and breast/axilla grade 3.
Greetings to everyone. I Am reading posts everyday and recognise that everyone has a different story to tell and a wealth of experience to share. In a nutshell, My diagnosis for PPC high grade serous was last Spring. I reacted to paclitaxol so had chemo just with Carboplatin. In Autumn I was ready for

BCD
Hi, I have been recently diagnosed with Bietti Crystalline Dystrophy. I have been getting intravenous avastin in both eyes for wet macular degeneration since 11 years (when needed). But my diagnosis is relatively recent. I personally have neither met or known anyone with BCD and wanted to see if anyone

Halfway thru Taxol Treatment woot woot...
Well Hello.... Just finished my 8th treatment of my weekly of 16 taxol, and not feeling that bad. As of now I get really tired on Sunday and an occasional bloody nose, will take that tradeoff because my CA 125 went down again to 11 from 17 three weeks ago. Still taking Avastin, which currently is bi-weekly

Experience with Yervoy/Opdivo for HCC? MD's watching scans when new area appears rather than changing treatment? MD's using a prior med?
My husband has been on Avastin/Tecentric q3wks since August 2020 with stable scans and AFP dropping from 600 to 262 until this week when there's a new area of uptake 2.5-3 cm that both oncologist/IR thinks is new area of cancer outside of portal vein but not well defined yet. They both rec repeat scans

End Stage wet AMD
I have had great results for 12 years with injections in my left eye. I have had Eyelea and Avastin and Lucentis. Currently on Lucentis and my vision was 20/25 2 weeks ago. I developed wet AMD in my right eye a year ago. I agreed to participate in a clinical trial for either Lucentis or Avastin.

Re: Covid Vaccine: (Oxford AstraZenica Vaccine) and treatment with Avastin?
Hello ladies....I was wondering if anyone has had the Covid vaccine? - (Oxford AstraZenica Vaccine) whilst on Avastin / Bevucizumab? I've been asked if I want to have it as I'm considered clinically vunerable due to having cancer treatment (I've finished Chemo 3 months ago and now continuing on Avastin
