My daughter's getting married but will I get there?
I feel bad about having to do it but I'm on my 4th type of chemo (weekly
taxol
), having been in treatment for 14 months apart from 6 weeks last summer.

Can't shake the fear
I'm dreading chemo tomorrow since I am already under the weather (carbo/
taxol
combo day). Some days my neuropathy is so uncomfortable I can't stand it. My sleep is off and on, largely due to hot flashes.

Taxol no longer working
I found out my pet scan showed progression in my liver. Onc said we will probably radiate the liver and try a different oral chemotherapy. He said I still have many options. I am feelin so scared as this is my first ad scan since my metastatic diagnosis in July 2016.

Advice on Wigs and Hair loss please!
Ok so next question - Having been warned by the Onc of the real potential for hair loss on carboplatin/
taxol
, I wanted to know your experiences. He has said I can try a cool cap during chemo which may help. Fine I'll give it a try! Might as well look ridiculous whilst I'm plugged in!

Sharing good news-ca-125
I am on an 18 week regimen of weekly carbo/
taxol
for oc (stage 3). Recently (10 week mark) my dr. ran my ca-125 and it went from 564 at the start of this drama down to 11! I was so glad he didn't tell me he was running it as I would have been stressing out of my mind waiting for the results.

anyone had positive results with Letrozole?
After surgery (hysterectomy, removal of both ovaries, Fallopian tubes and grapefruit sized tumour) I had carboplatin and
taxol
for about 5 months. This bought me a great and healthy 2016 - unfortunately my ca125 levels started to rise and now pt and ct scans show a number of tumours.

Feeling worried
I finished having weekly
taxol
2weeks ago on the 16th Dec, but since then I have been really breathless even walking slowly (which I do as I can't walk my normal speed since the chemo) I am so scared that the c word as gone into my lungs.

Recurrence in pelvic area and matastized mass in liver during 1st line treatment
I had my 3rd carbo/
taxol
treatment on Dec.28 ( delayed a week because of low white blood levels). Around January 2, I became incontinent. GP sent me for a vaginal and pelvic ultrasound.

Feeling breathless
I am worrying about it, but my husband and sister say it will be the after effects of the chemo, though when I was on carbo/
taxol
last year I was OK. Does anyone else have these effects.

Seeing surgeon this morning
Finished my chemo last Friday, was having weekly
taxol
& 3 weekly carbo/Avastin (although didn't have the 3rd round of Avastin due to the surgery/blood clotting issues from it) If anyone can suggest any particular questions I should be asking him I'd be grateful for your advice.

Experiences please.........
So I have just finished my 3rd Carbo/
Taxol
treatment of 6 for Stage III-C Ovarian Cancer, which has also spread to my Omentum. Until the past week or so, I wasn't really having very many unpleasant side effects.

Stage IV cancer recurrence
Is it as bad as
taxol
and carboplasin? Is there a chance for survival?
