Avastin joint pain and stiffness
I have had chemo - carboplatin and
taxol
and have now been on Avastin only for six months. I am getting increasingly stiff joints. I find I can't get out of bed and stand up easily.

Pamidronate & Zolendronic Acid
I have osteoporosis so of course they want to administer one of the above in between the Carbo and
Taxol
chemos. However once these bisphonates are in, their in and the thought of persistent flu like symptoms or ostecronosis of the jaw, a risk lasting 10 years looms large.

Weekly taxol
Has anyone had any success with weekly
taxol
. I have just finished the Pissaro trial at the Royal Marsden and my scan at the end showed although the disease was stable there was some evidence of minute growth 1 or 2 mm so my next option would be weekly
taxol
.

Low grade serous rollercoaster
I have had 3 chemo’s during that time 2013/2015, 2 x carboplatin only and last year had weekly
taxol
until July. The
taxol
last year didn’t completely get rid of it in the scan so they operated in November and took any visible disease away so Ned to naked eye (no bag which I was warned about).

Seeking Cisplatin advice
I’m currently two thirds through a three weekly regime of six cisplatin and
taxol
. The fourth dose floored me, left me so tired and weak that I spent five days in bed, only getting up to stagger a couple of paces to the loo. Has anyone else found cisplatin this hard?

Hoping the third time is the charm
She has now switched me to
taxol
which I took for my original breast cancer and had good results with. I also start radiation next week for the lymph nodes in my neck. I am really scared about the radiation because I just finished radiation to the same side in November of 2017.

Special Person update
Hi lovelies, Just a quick update we saw my special person’s oncologist today and it’s good news her CA125 is now 10 after 4 Carbo/
Taxol
4th like treatment, so that’s it for probably another 6 months hopefully longer but knowing the way she goes it’s 6 months.

Anyone have swelling of feet? Is this a side effect of Imbruvica? I’ve been taking this for a little more than 2 years.
Went through the watch and wait for 15 years then I was diagnosed with stage 1 breast cancer hr2+ I was treated with
taxol
& herceptin About a year later my lymph nodes started to swell in my neck. When they got uncomfortably big my doctor started me on Imbruvica.

Major issues on GemCarbo and losing weight
Even
Taxol
for 9 months was easy for me. Now I’ve had three cycles of Gemcarbo and I feel like I’m back when I was diagnosed. I vomit even w anti nausea drugs, I’ve lost 12 pounds and I don’t really have any weight to lose.

Mouth and tongue sore
This week I will have chemo #12 of weekly
taxol
- out of 18. Have had a sore in my mouth this weekend and what looks like scratches on my tongue. Feels like scratches in back of tongue too. Lozenges ease it. No temp! Gargling with baking soda and warm water.

My first post but sad news
Weekly
Taxol
again helped, until around April of this year, she had pockets of fluid on her lungs which couldn’t be drained safely. After several abdominal drains, she was then put on Caelyx, which you have to keep cool with, not easy during that heatwave we had.

2nd try: Avastin (Bevacizumab) + Taxol (Update)
Thus, last Friday she started Bevacizumab +
Taxol
and will continue this treatment every week for 2 months. I continue to take her to all of her appointments and monitor her side effects.

Platinum resistance
I have recurred just 3 months after finishing my first line of treatment - Carbo/
Taxol
which means I am 'platinum resistant'. I have also been taken off the immunotherapy drug trial for Avelumab as it obviously wasn't working for me.

Vistusertib and taxol
There’s an article in the mail today saying that the above drug in combination with paclitaxel has shown promise in slowing down the growth of ovarian cancer. Prof Banerji said what they saw in trials was exciting. Has anyone been part of/or aware of this trial?
