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?

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.

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.

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

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.

Further Treatment?
I have had Carbo/
Taxol
, Avastin, Carbo/Caelyx then Rubraca. The oncologist is going to examine the scan and then we will be having a face to face meeting. Had anyone got any idea what they might try next? I am just hoping that there is something else in the arsenal. Jenny

taxol
and found that tumor markers began creeping up? Well the answer is yes but really I want to know what they raised to and if then you were changed to a new med??
