Treating recurrence with Doxil: Side Effects?
I am being started on chemo again this week, but this time it will be carboplatin with Doxil instead of
Taxol
. Can those of you who have had Doxil please give me some first-hand info as to what side effects you had from the drug?

Questions on Taxol
I was recently for six cycles on Gemzar (first IV chemo since original diagnosis in 1995) but, as the scan indicated, it did not work so the oncologist would like to switch me to
Taxol
. So, for those of you who have been on
Taxol
, here are some specific questions: 1. Did the bone pain improve?

2nd recurrence
Now I will be starting Carbo&
Taxol
for 2nd recurrence. CT scan shows peritoneal lining issues and tumor in lower bowel. Thankfully it listed organs as “normal”. I’m hopeful C/T will get me NED again. Has anyone had peritoneal issues that can share how they did after treatment? Thank you!

A Minor Hospice Tip
Still can hardly walk due to how much my feet, legs, and muscles nerves got beaten up by the prior double chemo Carboplatin +
Taxol
I had as a last treatment for my comorbid advanced prostate cancer and also the advanced rare melanoma. Painwise, I've been relatively OK, so far.

Carbo/Taxol v carbo/Caelyx
I thought Caelyx was the strongest cancer drug according to a lot of the info I have seen, but various posters have said they found it easier than the
Taxol
. I did too, and it seemed to have worked better for me than the carbo/
taxol
regime.

I'm new
After 3 rounds of Carbo/
taxol
I had responded really well and was able to have the debulking surgery on Xmas eve. This was successful and in Feb 2021 my scan showed No evidence of disease, then I was put on a maintenance drug Bevacizumab and will have my last one 16thFeb 2022. I'm also non BRAC.

Okay ladies, anyone have their MO tell them it was okay to have either botox or fillers or both while on

. Crazy question I know and stupid but starting to look so old now.

Caelyx & Carboplatin -info for a friend
She had the usual
Taxol
& Carboplatin last time but doesn’t know what to expect with this new chemo combo. There seems confusion about whether she’ll lose her hair for example. Are there any ladies with recent experience? Anything in particular with side effects etc? Any info would be great!

High CA-125, yet no symptoms
First round of chemo was carbo-
taxol
- responded well. Two years later I had a recurrence and had a second round of carbon-gemzar and avastin and responded well. In March of 2020 I started Zejula and have been on it ever since.

Cytoxan and Avastin
Hello and Happy New year to all I was wondering if any of you lovely ladies have been given oral cytoxan pills 50mg. daily in conjunction with Avastin as a maintenance after Carbo/
Taxol
for high grade serous ovarian cancer. I stopped chemo in September and have only been taking Avastin.
