Hi - I’m 65 - was diagnosed May 2018 - OC stage 3a. Had hysterectomy in June - then 18 weeks Taxol with every 3rd week Carbo too. Finished chemo end of October and finally feeling a bit stronger and hair is returning. Ca125 was initially over 2500 - but since surgery and throughout chemo stayed under

All have similar side effects.
I’ve had just about all types of beta blockers and they all have similar side effects but the severity of these depends on the individual. Cold extremities is very common and a general slowing down of just about every function you can think of. I am currently on Sotalol for a ‘rate and rhythm’ disorder

AF or not?
I had a fairly stressful day yesterday and started to get lots of ectopics in the early evening. I decided to take my usual 2nd Sotalol of the day a bit early at 2030 and take a few Kardia readings. Some of these came back as normal with a bpm in the mid- seventies (my usual reading would be about 65

Not what I wanted for Christmas
Well I saw my oncogist this morning. Carboplatin and Taxol worked for first two chemo rounds but by third the cancer started fighting back and is growing. They plan to start me on Capecitabine for which I am having a blood test as its dangerous for some people, and Oxaliplatin in the new year. Onviously

Sotalol 80mg twice per day
Since taking Sotalol it has brought my heart rate down to 60 to 70 Bpm and my heart rate is smooth and in Sinus. Has anyone had side effects with it as I seem to have more bad dreams and wake up feeling quite depressed which goes away after being up and awake a while ??

First Chemo - Any advice?
I am taking my mom for her first chemo on Friday following her debulking surgery (5 weeks out). Any recommendations? How will she feel after? Any encouraging advice? She will be receiving Carbo & Taxol.

Sotalol and Milk
Does anyone know if Sotalol interact with milk or other daily product? I have read somewhere that it does but when I asked the pharmacist if there is anything (food) that I should not take with Sotalol she told me no. Thanks.

Meds Vs Ablation
Hi all, just an update. Went to see EP after having palpitations and being in AF even though I was on 80mg Sotalol x 2. Discussed with her on treatment plan. Agreed that we’ll see how it goes after she puts me on an increased dose of 120mg x 2. So far so good. If this does not seem to work we will

About Lynparza
I am new here and my Dr. suggested I try taking this and was wondering what anyone else taking this thought about it. I have had ovarian cancer three times now and she feels I am a good candidate. I was 13 years between the first and second time and 4 years between second and third. I was on Carboplatin

Aspartame
Would be interested to hear if anyone thinks there is a connection with aspartame and AF? Diagnosed 6 months ago and still symptomatic despite being on apixaban and Sotalol. Drink a well known diet drink (no alcohol,) in evenings and could this be a trigger? Any thoughts please?

Ovarian cancer stage 3c/4
My mom was recently diagnosed with said to be ovarian cancer stage 3c. She had a "better then optimal" Surgery per the oncologist, and today she visited the medical oncologist who said it could be stage 4 because it was on her liver. But the surgeon had told us it was on top of her liver and he removed

Trial or not
Has anyone started on the Dice trial being run at Royal Marsden. It is fairly new . It is a randomised trial Weekly Taxol plus an oral tablet taken for 12 days each 28 day cycle. It is a Phase 2 trial but the side effects on paper look pretty extensive. One arm of the trial would just receive the weekly

Afib, palpitations and ectopics
I had an episode of PAF on Wednesday after drinking some beer. Yesterday I went to the same pub but had a large cup of tea instead of drinking any alcohol. Shortly after, I found that my heartbeat became heavier than usual and that I had more ectopics than usual. This persisted for an hour or so and

Taxol groin swelling
I wonder if anyone has experienced their groin swelling and being uncomfortable whilst being on weekly taxol 3rd line chemo. I guess you all know what I am thinking. Any comments would be appreciated.
