Cross study treatment - anyone have experience??
Hi again, My husband has been told his treatment will be 23 sessions of radiotherapy every day and then 5 treatments of chemotherapy every week using
Paclitaxel
and carboplatin. We hope this will begin in 2 weeks after his laparoscopy. He will have 6/8 weeks recovery and then the Ivor Lewis Op.

We are perhaps more familiar with Docetaxel [Taxotere] but
Paclitaxel
[Taxol], from the Pacific yew, was the first. "

Just joined, diagnosed last March OC Stage 4
I then started with chemo
Paclitaxel
/Carboplatyn in April - 6 cycles. Subsequently surgery was suggested but as the surgeon wanted to take quite a lot out (unnecessarily) and particularly the rectum which would have left me with a permanent stoma I tried to find a second opinion or a referral.

Groundglass shadowing in a lung anyone?
Could it be a side-effect from the
Paclitaxel
, a slight infection, really nothing to worry about? Am I worrying about nothing? Maybe I should not have asked for a copy of the report - sometimes ignorance really is bliss!

Paclitaxel causes blackouts?
When taking any of the Taxols did anyone suffer from a fall due to a temporary blackout? Probably due to low blood pressure? Seems that if the bloods are not properly monitored that these falls can lead to fatalities due to head and other bone injuries? On the first line a year ago I had a fall going

Recently diagnosed and starting chemo on Wednesday - should I try the cool cap or will I lose my hair anyway??
I’m due to have carboplatin and
paclitaxel
and my consulatant has said that although I’m welcome to try the ‘cool cap’ she has only known it ever to work in one person undergoing this sort of chemotherapy. So I’m advised not to bother and to just accept that I will lose my hair.

CA-125 Test Results
My treatments will involve 3 rounds of carboplatin/
paclitaxel
then debulking surgery then another 3 rounds of carboplatin/
paclitaxel
. I might have to have up to 8 rounds in total. I've read up on a lot of information but the one I cannot figure out is the CA-125 blood test.

What happens when avastin finishes?
Hi ladies, after finishing carboplatin and
paclitaxel
I am now on no 14 of 18 avastin. I have just had a scan and have new small growths in my liver and lungs. However a previous growth in my abdomen continues to shrink.

My juicing formula for my mother with stage 4 primary peritoneal cancer/ovarian cancer now almost fully recovered
She then, like many of you, started 6 rounds of
paclitaxel
, carboplatin, and avastin. When her cancer was first discovered, blood test showed CA125 of over 2,000. After the debulking surgery it went down to around 400.

Lost Voice - where did it go?
Although chemo finished a year ago (
Paclitaxel
) I still have not recovered my voice lost during excessive and almost violent reflux coughing. Has anyone else had this? Did the voice come back?
