Carboplatin and gemcitabine
Hi everyone. I'm not a frequent blogger, though I frequently access all the amazing insight and support from this site. So, here's my story. At 45, 6 and a half years ago, I was diagnosed with stage III high grade OC, despite having been under the doctor for the previous year with 'non-specific' symptoms

Debulking surgery
We have asked repeatedly for this to be done but are being refused. My wife was diagnosed with suspected ovarian cancer (poorly differentiated, might be clear cell) in January. Post 6 carbo/taxol sessions she is now to go on to weekly taxol. They say the risks are too high of not getting all of it with

Strategies for coping with the chemo chair please
I'm just about to start weekly taxol only a few weeks after carbo/gem. I'll go through with it because I have to, but I am finding the prospect rather daunting. All those hours spent hooked up when the sun might be shining outside. I have also been known to have the odd panic attack. So how do you

Ca125 rising again even though I am on weekly taxol
Went for 16th taxol was told my ca125 had risen from 650 to over 1000 really disappointed. My ca 125 started at 12000 so was really pleased it has dropped to 650 , now really scared the OC is fighting back again as I have been getting a uncomfortable tummy and I am sure tummy has got bigger, what is

Option suggestions please
Hi I was diagnosed in Dec 2012, have had carbo/taxol, debulking, weekly taxol followed by weekly Topotecan with almost no break in between. Just recently the bloating and pain has returned and a scan has shown that the disease has progressed in all areas. I believe I am still stage 3 though. Because
