Caelyx isn't working for me and has been stopped after 4 infusions. The tumours have grown in several places and this has included one that is pressing on my ureter and blocking one kidney, so I had a stent put in yesterday after a few days in hospital with a drainage tube (nephrostomy). Now weekly taxol

Now prescribed Amiodarone
Just seen my cardiologist today who has now prescribed Amiodarone. He did discuss AV node ablation but wanted to try this medication first, I took Flecainide for 20+ years and then Sotalol in the last year. Having had a TIA at the end of August as a consequence of my AF I am now on Apixabam and my cardiologist

Third ablation, lots of palpitations.
Hi there. Been a while since my last post. After the ablation for AVNRT in 2014, I underwent a second one in january this year (LVOT) and another one just 12 days ago (20th October). My cardio tried to burn a point in the RVOT which gives me palpitations when doing an effort like brisk walking. Unfortenately

first chemo problems
I had my first chemo on Friday. I had carboplatin and taxol and spent the whole weekend being sick. I spent yesterday in hospital on a saline drip while they tried different anti emetics. I'm really concerned because I am on weekly taxol so I reacted that badly to half a dose. Is it likely to get worse

Treating OC as a "Chronic Disease" How to Cope..
Hi Ladies. Thank you for your help. My question the other day was regarding platinum resistance. I did great and have been clean since the third cycle BUT within a few shorts months of ringing the 6th cycle bell I recurred with two small markers in my left pelvic. I felt so discouraged and felt like

Chemo Advice Please
