Feeling breathless
I finished my weekly taxol last Friday, my feet and ankles ate still swollen even though I am taking water tablets. Also I find it quite hard work walking as I get out of breath. I don't see my oncologist till the 24th of January and will be getting a ct scan before then. Also as well as not being able

Scared about chemo effects, and the future...

I've posted a few comments on other's posts but not written my own. Since my diagnosis in October, I've just trusted in

Stage IV cancer recurrence
I was NED from February to September although my CA125 was rising from 15 to 559. In December my PET scan came back showing that the cancer has returned. I will be starting Cisplatin and Gemzar along with the avastin that have been on. Is this just a waste time of time ? Do I really have a chance ?

Addressing and avoiding post op issues
Hi all In my early days post op just before and during treatment I lived on my couch. It was closest to the bathroom, kitchen, door, and phone charger and I liked being alone at night so I wouldn't bother anyone when I couldn't sleep. I spent a lot of time on Google but, for me, it was a useful tool

CamA 125 score climbing
Hey ladies. Quick question. Mom has been taking taxol but it seems like her CA 125 gets higher every week. 3 week period it went from 26 to 29 to 34. Is this a clear indication that the chemo is. It working and that the cancer is growing. What do you guys think. Have a cat scan planned in two weeks but

Massage and neuropathy
Has anybody had massage help with neuropathy? After 10 rounds with taxol, I suddenly got neuropathy in my hands about 4 days before my next treatment. I had happened to schedule a massage on the same day as my next chemo, and since then it has been completely gone. Coincidence or am I on to something

Taxol or tamoxifin versus radiotherapy for 4th line
Hello everyone, I saw the oncologist yesterday and he has offered me the above for 3c diagnosed early 2013. Doxil (3rd line) didn't work and the main tumour is in the vaginal cuff. I think I've decided on radiotherapy as it is less hazardous to my body. Is there anyone out there who has chosen this course

Metastatic and moving forward
Hi, I am Denni. I am a 66 year old female metastatic breast cancer #lifer #thrivor. I currently reside in Angels Camp, CA. I was diagnosed in December of 1995 with Stage III cancer in my right breast. My mother died from breast cancer when I was 13 and she was 54, so I chose to have bilateral mastectomies

Taxol stopped after second dose
Just had taxel stopped after second dose leaving four solo carboplatin to go. Did I lose my hair for nothing or will just two doses make a difference!?
