Taxol
is a serious irritant. Anywho, he’s okay. Hair is slowly starting to come out as of yesterday. He’s fine with it. I am hell bent on getting him back on immunotherapy. And i mean HELL BENT. Stupid steroids.... has to be lower than 1.5mg of decadron a day. He’s down to 3mg a day.

Chemo headwear advice please
I’m expecting to lose my hair with my weekly
taxol
starting next week. I lost my hair in summer 2017 and wore a mixture of a wig and various “buffs” - sports headwear that can be worn in different ways. Back then my kids and I wanted me to look “normal” on the school run and out and about.

Neutrophils
Hello I have been having weekly
taxol
. First was a series of weekly doses, all fine. Then three months off. Now I’m back on weekly does, first two were fine but my blood test for the third was low on neutrophils so sent home.

Hope
(Carboplatin and
Taxol
combo) Ryan is doing fairly well. He has some achy joints and muscles. Unfortunately so much so that he has been taking a low dose pain med. tolerable once it kicks in and he can carry on life as normal. He feels fine otherwise which is great.

CT Scan shows mass
Went thru 6 rounds
Taxol
/Carboplatin and was NED for 10 years. This April it came back. Went thru another 6 rounds, just had follow up CT Scan, it shows what might be a mass in my pelvis area. They were unable to needle biopsy due to my intestine being in the way.

Feeling deflated
appointment with oncologist this morning I asked about cisplatin along side the gem since I can no longer have carbo, but she said Irish protocol does not use cisplatin for ovarian cancer, I then asked about second look surgery which she said my gyne doctor would not do, so she said the only option left is

Ascites drain shutting bowel down and green bile sick.
I have primary peritoneal cancer, on third line weekly
taxol
. Back in February I started being sick large amounts of green bile, it would build up over 4-6 hours till the pressure got to much and it would come out like something from horror film.

Still getting symptoms after 6 infusions of Chemo; abdominal pain and groin pain swollen stoma, anyone possibly shed some light on this?
I had my 6th (final) infusion (Carbo/
Taxol
) at the beginning of December. Soon after, I started to get a stitch under my lower right rib, I then started to get pain in my lower right abdomen, then a tight stitch type feeling up the length of my right side. Non of this has gone away.

Bulletin! Update for Laura and the DICE Trial.
The wonderful team admonished me for not calling them during the week, but now have taken everything under consideration and have decided to have me skip this week’s
Taxol
and the TAC228 and they will check up on me on Thursday.

And the results....
Taxol
and carboplatin. What the hell is that? Is that really our last option? That’s garbage.. In the mean time; they want chemo; and for him to be screened for clinical trials. They said I could consult with a doctor about TIL. I am beside myself right now..

Thank you all again from Laura Update on DICE Trial
This is delighting my daughter as it serves to demonstrate that even though I did not have my third
Taxol
infusion, it is obviously still working it’s magic. I do feel a lot stronger and a lot hungrier! Went to my local hospital for bloods and walked all around, unaided!

taxol

Laura and the DICE Trial - Be Careful What You Wish For!
I always heard that weekly
Taxol
was easy to tolerate, but I am not doing very well already and if side effects are cumulative, I am doomed. Here’s hoping my beautiful research nurses will think of something to help me. Perhaps a lower dosage of both the targeted drug and the
Taxol
.
