In June 2019, I was diagnosed with stage 4 OC. And, on Tuesday, 8/25, I will start my third line of treatment. Will be taking weekly taxol and Avastin. I’m told it’s pretty tolerable, which I’m all about. Any advise for what I can expect to feel with respect to side effects? Unfortunately, I didn

Online support for mum
Hello all! I've been recommended this forum through a friend who works in oncology. I'm looking for ways to support my mum who has stage 4 ovarian cancer. In November last year mum was diagnosed with possible stage 3, suspected ovarian endometrium origin. Following 4 rounds of taxol and carboplatin

Hat Trick
Hi lovely ladies. I am 11 weeks in to my weekly Taxol treatment and my hair is now getting very thin. My friend turned up yesterday with this amazing hat. I thought it might give you all a little smile. It's certainly quite a statement and I love it!! 😉😂🤠

TAXOL
Hi Ladies. Well the saga continues! Telephone call with consultant today. She had to ask if I'd had a scan before she found it on the system. After a quick look at report concusions it was evident that Caelyx was not working so she would try weekly Taxol. Three weeks on then a week off. Has anyone else

Wisconsin ginseng and Ashwagandha for fatigue?
Hi There Everyone, Ugh lately the fatigue has been rough. I am an active person (I scull 4-days a week, 20 mins of yoga and I work full time although not a very stressful job) The fatigue has intensified the last month or so. To the point I am mentally spent at 3pm and can do nothing at 6pm. My labs

Stage 4B OC, 1st Recurrence. How is CarboPlatin and Gemcitibine as treatment?
I have just been diagnosed with a recurrence after 18 treatments of Carbo and Taxol and debulking surgery. Diagnosed originally in June 2019 with OC stage 4B. I am told because my recurrence happened in 6 months, I “may be” platin resistant. I am specifically looking for feedback on CarboPlatin and

Laura Update - No More Chemo - On to Letrozole
Well, ladies, I have had some disappointing news these last few weeks. I went for my regular pre-Chemo blood tests, but my Oncologist called me the next day to say my Liver function looked bad. I wouldn’t be having Chemo and instead would get an Ultrasound of my liver. Also, my cancer marker had shot

My mums really poorly 😢
Hey ladies I'm not really sure where to start. My mum was waiting to start caelyx for a 2nd recurrence after only finishing carbo and taxol at the end of march. She started getting ascites again and when she saw her consultant 3 weeks ago he asked for an urgent drain and ct. She was supposed to go back

Taxol
Just finished 4 bi-weekly rounds or A&C and start weekly Taxol next week. I bought freezer booties for feet and freezer hand wraps for hands to hopefully help with any neuropathy. Any advice on how to deal with Taxol? I did relatively well on the AC. Usual symptoms none that could not be controlled

Adriamycin anyone?
So after Ibrance, Taxol, Fulvestrant, Avastin (still taking Fulvestrant and Denosumab), Xeloda. It looks like my next port of call is either more Taxol (which I found fine for the first 17 weeks) or Adriamycin. Anyone tried this?I found Xeloda was so bad for my tummy plus tiredness but found Taxol fine

Skin metastasis? UPDATE
So, GP and CT scan confirm that the skin nodule at laparoscopy port site is metastasis and with other ‘small changes’ my oncologist has given me the option of weekly taxol starting next week. As I only finished second line Carbo/ Caelyx in March I am now deemed platinum resistant. I think I’ll try to

Clinical Trials
Hello Fellow Fighters! I have been stage 4 with mets to bone and liver for 4 years. I went through 7 different treatments and was about to start abraxane in April. My oncologist was not excited about this because I already have neuropathy from taxol, and abraxane would most likely make it worse.

Strange Development
Good morning all, it's a lovely day on Englands south coast and the sun is shining. Getting to my question, I need advice please. Newly diagnosed in early May with PMR. Put on Pred 15mg all symptoms and pain disappeared the following day. Felt great and after 3 weeks tapered to 12.5mg. No issues. Further

Change of meds from Bisoprolol to Sotalol . I have asthma and copd so very scared.
Episodes of very fast PAF started in January 2013. My episodes are ALWAYS very fast - 170 - 210 . I take rivaroxaban and bisoprolol. Always go to A&E ( as told to do by docs) if heart rate remains over 150 for more than 2.5 /3 hrs. My heart usually returns to NSR within 3.5/ 4 hours , sometimes
