After Avastin.
Morning lovely ladies x My Avastin treatment will ending in May, having had 22 cycles following surgery and chemotherapy. I can’t help wondering what happens after? Is it just of case of wait and see? I was stage 4b when diagnosed in November 2018. I feel very grateful for the treatment I’ve received

Pleurodesis?
I had a chance to speak with my doctor today for the follow-up to the thoracentesis. I was told that I am now at stable disease. I had the second thoracentesis in six weeks with another 1.1 liters pulled out. My treatment options are pretty slim as if right now. I'd never originally responded to first

Pendle99 : Farewell to Penny
Dear friends, sisters and fellow warriors, It is with a very heavy heart that I must tell you all that my friend Penny lost her battle with Ovarian Cancer last Monday, 20 of January. Her dear husband Johnny was kind enough to call me that day to let me know that she had passed away. He told me that Penny

Olaparib
Hi, I am taking Olaparib doing fine up to now I’m taking it since last January 2019 I was initially given Avastin after my first round of chemotherapy, I had my first recurrence 21 months later, I’ve had two recurrences in total but because I just couldn’t take anymore chemotherapy I pushed for the Olaparib

Integrative? Success with supplements - food choices prolonging remission?
I have been on (and off) chemo for about three or four years, mostly on. The latest was almost a year and a half of Carbo/Gemzar also with Avastin. Now I am ONLY on Avastin, NED for almost 6 months. I was NED during most of last chemo also. I always take all sorts of supplements and foods, and I am revisiting

Update on the pleural effusion
Well, you all were right. This pleural effusion is coming because there has been a development in the small nodule growing in my right lung. it's very small and its growth is incremental at least in as far as the last CT scan over a month ago. Meanwhile, they're keeping me on avastin because the doctor

First reoccurrence .
Hello lovely ladies, After 9 glorious months In remission my CNS confirmed by phone that a scan has revealed my cancer is ‘ active again’. I have an appointment with the oncologist on Tuesday but she also said it may not mean ‘chemo’. So, until we know what the plan is I’ve decided not to tell anyone

Still getting symptoms after 6 infusions of Chemo; abdominal pain and groin pain swollen stoma, anyone possibly shed some light on this?
Hello ladies, I hope many of you managed to enjoy a lovely Christmas. Happy New Year to you all. I hope 2020 is a kind year. During chemo I had the usual shooting pains, abdominal pains etc that came and went - pains that became quite normal but that would only last a day or so and intermittently
