Neuropathic pain in the limbs and neck
Had surgery and chemo - Carboplatin and
Paclitaxel
. Now I'm on Bevacizumab. Next mount will be the last infusion. I have pain in my limbs and neck for months now. Sometimes I don't have the strength to stand on my feet. I can't bend my head to the sides.

Icon 9 trial versus Olaparib
I nitially had 3 treatments of Carboplatin and
Paclitaxel
, followed by debulking surgery followed by 3 more treatments of chemotherapy. The cancer returned in the lymph nodes but not in any major organs but surgery not an option for the lymph nodes. Any suggestions about the best way forward ?

Hair loss and Abraxane
I had a reaction to
paclitaxel
do I am on Abraxane instead. My Doctor told me my hair wouldnt fall out and I wouldn't need the cold cap but I'm starting to see it come out at 2 weeks since the cycle. I'm just wondering if it's the start of it all coming out or whether it will just be thining.

Am I at the end of life? Chemo failing.
He is adding in
Paclitaxel
with Carboplatin at lower dose and going every 2 weeks instead of every 3. Hope it works. Very afraid now. Any ideas?

Abraxane
A friend has moved to this instead of
Paclitaxel
and apparently it's a much shorter treatment. An hour or half an hour rather than 5 hours. I wondered if anyone here knew about it?

Now to try topotecan
I had a few rounds of carboplatin/
paclitaxel
, which help things at bay for a while, then 3 doses of Caelyx which apparantly was not working although I felt well on it. I’ve now been offered topotecan, i.v., five days on, two weeks off, and wonder if anyone else has tried this and how they got on.

Opinions about chemotherapy. Running out of options
Paclitaxel
is also given here on days 1 & 15 at a higher dose (135mg/m2). I think the second plan (chemo every 2 weeks) is probably better supported by evidence.

Reccurence PPC - How to know if it's gone?
She was put on the standard chemo treatment with 6 rounds of carboplatin and
paclitaxel
. The chemo this time around was a bumby ride with alot of fever, a blod cloth and very low blood count numbers after about her third chemo.

Niraparib(Zejula) failed. What now?
Had the standard treatment: six cycles of carboplatin/
paclitaxel
chemo and debunking surgery. Was declared NED in May 2020. Started Zejula 200 in July 2020. The dose was later reduced to 100 because of side effects.

Interesting. Can't believe again
Let's see what is out there for clinical trials .the trial is Tomivosertib with
Paclitaxel
. My understanding is they have tried this on numerous cancer types but not breast cancer. By the way it doesn't look like it was successful on other cancers.

Back to paclitaxel
They want to start me on a course of
Paclitaxel
. I’ve always been so positive and now I’m just weepy and upset. Not like me at all....

Just what I didn't need.
Needless to say the last 16 weeks of
paclitaxel
have not worked. I just hope that the radiotherapy shrinks the tumour a bit and helps things move along.
