Low platelet
Hello, I asked my oncologist about the pain and he said it was the chemo/treatment working in my body. That as long as the pain comes and goes it's fine. He would be concerned if the pain was constant and didn't go away. My platelet count was a little low so they only gave me half of my dosage of taxol

Aches and pains
I'm on my 5 session of chemo.. taxol and carbon. Thankfully, I haven't been in pain or had any side effects. However, this week I have had pains in my body that I haven't felt before. Like soreness in my upper back and stomach pains. Did anyone else have this? Not sure why it is coming now... I will

Diagnosed with stage 1c 6 weeks ago.
A kind lady on the Mamillan site has sent m over here, said you are all very friendly :) I had a swelling in my abdomen, found it in May, didn't go away so I went to my gp a few weeks later. She fast tracked me immediately and took blood there and then. In 24 hours I had an ultrasound, it was a huge

Had my appointment with my oncologist yesterday before I had chemo my 9th one. Good news with my numbers, four weeks ago it had gone down to 148 from 300. This week it was 31, so the taxol seems to be doing its stuff. Really happy and relieved. 😊 xxx

Off Taxol..
Hello ladies, I had chemo today and I told the nurse that the neuropathic is unbearable. She rang the oncologist and he said to stop it. I feel a bit upset because I said to the nurse will the carboplatin be as good as combined carbo/taxol, and she replied that I am only having aduvent chemotherapy so

What is 'normal' after chemo?
I had my second lot of Carboplatin, and first of Taxol and Avastin last Wednesday. Seem to have cracked the constipation/diarrhea balance, this time, but have been badly affected by pains in feet and legs. I'm finding it difficult to sleep because of it. Otherwise, apart form being tired all seems

Unused Medication
I took Sotalol for a short time recently and before I could use a new batch that had been delivered, I was changed back on to Flecainide by my EP. This morning I took the packets of Sotalol (120 tabs) out of the cupboard intending to take them back to the pharmacy, but knowing that they would go straight

Another pleural effusion - Scared of recurrence....
Scared….. Hi, I have been so upset this week. I was diagnosed OC 3c high grade serous in October 2015, aged 63. Had 2 carbo/taxol, but because of side affects of taxol resulting in two x 2 weeks in hospital, plus really bad neuropathy, taxol was stopped. I had 2 pulmonary embolisms, pleural effusion

Hi All, Mum is on her 3rd line treatment at the moment and we are not 100% sure if she is still responding as her levels have increased slightly each week. Mum has had Carboplatin / Taxol for first line - this seemed to work well the first time and she ended up NED. After a 6 month relapse they put

Hello
My name is Loretta. I am 62 years old. I was diagnosed with Stage 3 ovarian cancer in May 2014. I had a hysterectomy in June 2014 and had to have a Stoma as the cancer had spread to my bowel. This was followed with weekly chemo with carboplatin and taxol. I was unwell during chemo but once completed

The Trouble with AFib
i am from the states and enjoy these post very much. The method of treatment in a lot of cases is different in this country than in the UK or Australia I have had AFib for over 5 years. Started horribly with a rate of over 268, put in ICU (contrary to popular belief AFib can kill you) drugs stopped
