Parps success and Stage
I’m seeing many of you are having great success with Parps. Was wondering, what stage you all are? I have the fortune of responding well to chemo and the misfortune of it returning 8 weeks later. I am stage 4B. This happened with first line, Taxol/Carbo and second line, Carbo/Gemzar/Avastin. I stayed

Break in Avastin
HI Everyone Has anyone got any thoughts or experience of a break in their Avastin cycle... Briefly I had my 4th infusion on 4th December 2020 then found out I need a mastectomy on 19th January for a stage 3 breast and lymph node cancer. My 2 cancers are unrelated apparently. So... After healing I think

Ca125 Dropped since starting Weekly Treatments
Well Hello, Just finished my 4th treatment of weekly Taxol and by biweekly Avastin, which is going really well. Haven't lost hair yet except for my lady area which is weird, well guess it is saving me money from getting a wax...😂😂😂. And also no real side affects yet, knock on wood, just get tired

Vaccine trial for Ovarian Cancer
Good morning Teal Ladies, A couple of you asked about the vaccine trial for OC I am in. This is what they are trying to accomplish: teach your T cells to recognize the Ovarian cancer cells and attack and destroy them( my terms) How? After surgery part of the tumor is saved for creating a vaccine. It

CT scan
Had a scan on Xmas Eve to see if I will be able to have surgery. I declined surgery a few months ago as I was nursing my husband, he has since passed away and I feel I want a chance to prolong my life. I'm so scared as I have some discomfort in both sides of upper abdomen. I am stage 4 and at last scan

Stage 4a cancer returned. An update and a question
Hi ladies, About 10 days ago I posted that a recent PET scan showed that cancer has recurred in 3 areas of my peritoneum and I was worried in case I wouldn’t be offered treatment as the recurrence was so son after chemo and avastin. I had many replies that were comforting and reassuring. Thank you for

Stage 4a cancer has recurred
Disappointed by PET scan results. Hello ladies I am more frightened than disappointed. I was diagnosed with stage 4a ovarian cancer in late 2018 it had spread to the peritoneum. I had chemo and debunking surgery in 2019 followed by avastin for 12 months. Recent PET scan shows that the cancer has reoccurred

So happy I found this place! It is a treasure trove of information. I am an 83-year-old woman from California with macular degeneration. It has been very slowly progressing for about 10 years, but recently one eye progressed to the wet form. I have had two Avastin injections and am due for a third next

Continuing weekly taxol
Hope someone has some advice for me. I’ve had 18 weekly sessions of taxol and Avastin. My oncologist is giving me the option to continue the taxol or maintenance only with Avastin. I’m not sure if there is any benefit. Has anyone got experience our advice?

Sudden Sadness
I was diagnosed with ovarian CA 18 months ago. It actually was more serious than that as my ovaries and fallopian tubes had been removed years earlier due to benign polyps, It is now diagnosed as stage 4 endometrial CA. I have undergone 6 months of chemo combined with another 6 months of Avastin.
