Could you give me some idea of what I will go through please?
Hi everyone. Had my scan results today and tumors are still growing. Oncologist said I have been on many therapies and none have worked . Now my last option is chemo. Paclitaxel sometimes called Taxol. I am very old but as she said I am active so we can try this. I have heard so many frightening reports

Ashwagandha. Interactions with heart meds?
Ashwagandha seems to be good at reducing stress, but I’m wondering what interactions there might be with Sotalol and Warfarin. Does anyone have any experience pls?

Mini Miracle
I was diagnosed with Afib in late August. Had a cardioversion that lasted a week. Went on to Sotalol- kicking and screaming all the way. As of two days ago my 24/7 Afib stopped and I am in Sinus Rhythm. Dr. said it was due to Sotalol and if I stop it the Afib will return. My heart is enlarged noted

Sotalol and Sertraline
I am under a lot of stress at the moment and feeling very low following PMR diagnosis and disruption to my GI due to the meds. I am tapering prednisolone and down to 2mg although some shoulder pain. I have paroxysmal afib. My doctor wants me on low dose sertraline but I have read this is a dangerous

Treating recurrence with Doxil: Side Effects?
I am three years from the end of carboplatin and Taxol chemotherapy for my Stage 3 ovarian cancer. Prior to chemo I had a complete hysterectomy, omentectomy, appendectomy, and transverse colon resection. I now have a recurrence, with a tumor near the sigmoid colon and rectum. There is no surgery or radiation

Questions on Taxol
Hello friends. I was initially diagnosed in 1995 and did well until 2013 when extensive mets to the bones were discovered. I've written here before that, unbelievably (to my oncologist and the radiologist), relative to how many bones are affected, I didn't feel any pain for 8 years and was able to

Pill in pocket
Look forward to comments. Seems my cardiologist wants to cover all the bases (more medications = better protection). GP agreed I should try coming off flecainide. Taking Xarelto blood thinner to be safe. Use Apple Watch and take ECG readings at every opportunity. Five days ago I went off flecainide

High CA-125, yet no symptoms
I was diagnosed with Ovarian serous adenocarcinoma, Grade 3c in 9/2017. I had a TOTAL hysterectomy, and debaulking. First round of chemo was carbo-taxol - responded well. Two years later I had a recurrence and had a second round of carbon-gemzar and avastin and responded well. In March of 2020 I started

Caelyx & Carboplatin -info for a friend
A friend is just embarking on round 2 following a relapse. She had the usual Taxol & Carboplatin last time but doesn’t know what to expect with this new chemo combo. There seems confusion about whether she’ll lose her hair for example. Are there any ladies with recent experience? Anything in particular

Carbo/Taxol v carbo/Caelyx
I thought Caelyx was the strongest cancer drug according to a lot of the info I have seen, but various posters have said they found it easier than the Taxol. I did too, and it seemed to have worked better for me than the carbo/taxol regime. So I dont think people should necessarily be scared of having

fillers on treatment
Okay ladies, anyone have their MO tell them it was okay to have either botox or fillers or both while on taxol. Crazy question I know and stupid but starting to look so old now.

Feeling lost
Following full hysterectomy, removal of appendix, and omentum , graded as 2a mucinous, which was found in the right ovary , and a small microscopic amount in the left . I was told mucinous is very hard to treat and had 6 months carboplatin chemo . Unfortunately I have a recurrence just 6 months later
