NED update
Yep, you can have no obvious lesions on a CT scan and still need chemo! "Encasement of the bowel and its mesentery by Carcinometistasis" is the issue for me. It seems the seeding is so extensive it is almost paralysing my bowel so my oncologist says 2nd line chemo may reduce it. He also said that it

Side effects from Eliquis
I am new to the group. I was diagnosed with stage 4 MBC in 8/17 after 10 years of being cancer free following diagnosis of breast cancer Ductal institute stage 0. I have been healthy and they found it in my eye on routine eye exam. I have no mass on mammogram and there are different opinions as to if

Fasting mimicking diet during chemo - its controversial..
Dear All. Having just completed 1st round of Carbo-Taxol me and my husband are mad about recent research and improvements we can make to reduce my likelihood of relapse after adjuvant chemotherapy. So, the boxes are ticked for alkaline diet, home made kefir, kombucha, matcha and trying to meditate (

Bevacizumab/Avastin. Anyone on this long term?
Hi All, Just joined. Had ppc stage 3c/4 diagnosed Nov 2016. Finished Carbo, Taxol with Bevacizumab May/June 2017. Continued with Bevacizumab and was reviewed last week, number 14. Levels are steady but was told the body needs to rest and recover hence stopping at 18. There was reference to funding also

Hair today. Gone tomorrow
Hello everyone. I am on a 12 week course of Taxol. I finished my 3rd treatment yesterday. I woke up last night shedding hair all over my pillow and today I have been moulting like a Cat. How long will take for it all to go.....and will it speed up a bit ? This is the part of chemo I've been dreading.

High Blood Pressure during the Night.
Hi, I wonder if anyone is able to help me with a high blood pressure issue. I have had Paroxysmal Afib for about 10 years and managed Ok other than the occasional visit to A&E when the HR won't drop from 140 and then have had to have a Cardio Version, one full version and another one via an injection

Dismayed
After waiting twelve months to see an EP regarding my AF which I have had for twenty years I told him I came off Sotalol 320mg a day because it made me feel so unwell with my GP guidance of course. He thought not having any medication at all for control was not a good thing because I will go into permanent

Third time UNlucky……..
Third time UNlucky…….. Just been told today that my CA-125 is up again at 235. I have a consultant appointment next week but just wondered if any of you lovely ladies had any words of wisdom for third line treatment? What did you have and have you managed a period of remission after third line treatment

Stopping amiodarone, phrenic nerve and cryoablation?
Hi, Id posted a few weeks ago about bad side effects I was having on amiodarone and am glad to say my EP stopped it and replaced with sotalol. Really hoping this works as it is my only hope left. My EP was great he clearly explained why he cant do anymore RF ablations and showed me the 3D image of my

What a first day back
Hi all, my mom had her first chemo yesterday for her first recurrence. I had mentioned a few weeks back that they were watching and waiting with her, but her doctor felt her numbers were going up too high, too fast, and decided to act now. She's getting Carbo and Taxol, the same as the first time,

Herceptin anyone ?
Hello again everyone. I have just started weekly Taxol (HER +, ER neg ,Grade 2 ,stage 1/2 lobular ) I was going to have Herceptin at the same time but they have decided I need another heart scan first. I am apparently borderline for having it. I have been reading a lot of conflicting comments about Herceptin

Medication before Taxol
Hi still suffering with blocked bowel and daily sickness. Just praying it will get better. Fed up of spending every night on the sofa because I can't lie down. However just wanted some advice on Taxol. The last two sessions I have had I seem to have had a bad reaction to the medications they give me

MRI results
Hello everyone. So I went for the results of the MRI Dr. Says he suspects the OC has spread to my liver but needs to confirm it with a biopsy. I was not prepared for that. I was expecting to hear it's just scar tissue or a bad scan. I am trying to be brave but I'm truly terrified . The first round

High Blood Pressure after ablation
I have had 15 yrs of paroxysmal aFib. I just had an ablation in January, 2018. Since the ablation, my HR is really high, i.e., 90+bpm, and it was always 72bpm before the heart meds made it 55bpm for 2 yrs. My most recent med was sotalol, and I stopped that after the ablation. The fast HR doesn't bother

4 AC down, 1 Taxol down, 11 to go...
Can't believe I'm now over half way through chemo! The fourth AC hit me more than the previous ones, but they're done now and I had my first Taxol last week. So far so good - vague sensation of jaw aching at times but not much else. Although I had a massive dose of steroids with the first infusion and
