Primary peritoneal cancer
I originally had just carboplatin but within 2 months the ascitic fluid built up again so I am now going to be on carboplatin +
taxol
. I shall be losing my beautiful locks! The woes!

Through the support of you lovely ladies and the positive experience of having
taxol
/Carbo Chemo on Wednesday and still feeling well today felt much brighter and positive.

Choice of chemo drugs
Do you think the added
taxol
is worth doing or to stick to the carboplatin on its own? Any thoughts either way would be appreciated. Thank you!

I am allergic to taxol
I am allergic to
Taxol
! So therefore, I am only doing the Carboplatin! After doing six sessions on my reoccurance, I was only in remission for 5 months! The Oncologist assured me that it wasn't because just having the Carbollation was adequate! I don't even pretend to know!

Recurrence
Onc says no point in carbo/
taxol
again, and not sure that another standard chemo will have any effect on clear cell, thinks a trial may be my best option so is looking for a suitable one, but final decision is up to me, my head is all over the place xxx

Painful Journey ...Still looking for a hope
Dignosed on Oct. 2013, Peritoneal/abdominal might be ovary origin, metastatic papillary serous carcinoma...the last 12 months finished 3 kind of chemo Carbo &
Taxol
, Doxil as well as etoposide. Last CT showed few/small progression here and there with no sign of remission at all.

chemo sick-timing?
I'm curious as to the timing of the effects of carboplatin/
taxol
. My mom just had her first infusion and I always thought the nausea came right away, then subsided in about a week--but others have told me it doesn't start for a couple of weeks. Just trying to get an idea of what to expect.

4th line chemo
First line Carbo
Taxol
failed almost immediately she finished. We were then told the outlook was bleak, but she elected to try Caelyx, 3 doses followed by hospitalisation due to mouth ulcers, couldn't continue, but she got 5 good months chemo free.

Good News.
I have had 3 cycles of carbo/
taxol
and debulking surgery. Yesterday I went in for the first of my final 3 chemos. I was told that my CA125 has dropped from 16711 in June to 25. It is now within normal range! Yeah.

Carboplatin/taxol with Avastin for 2nd line treatment
Please could any of you who are on carbo/
taxol
with the addition of Avastin for second line tell me if it was offered automatically or not and if not if you had a battle to get it approved.

Run out of chemo options. Clinical Trials now
I have had all the drugs agailable including 2 years on Avastin and a whole year on weekly
Taxol
. I had 6 months on Myocet (caelyx equivelant) and even retried Carboplaitin alone after a 2 year break not to mention the normal frontline treatments of Carbo/
taxol
then Carbo/Gemcitabin.

Taxotere Versus Caelyx
ONC put me on Caelyx as well as Carbo after debulking op in August but after doing my research I came across Taxotere which is a
Taxol
same as Paclitaxol but less likely to cause an allergic reaction.
