Game-changers: Tips for Managing Chemo Side Effects
Hair that's going to fall out: Drugs like
Taxol
and Taxotere (and others) almost always cause hair loss. I've lost my hair a couple times and I can tell you this - it can be traumatic (even if you think you're prepared). So, here's what I suggest: 1. Cut your hair short before you start.

My first Post
Started on 6 rounds chemo (
taxol
and carbo platen). After each round my CA-125 dropped (4988, 596,33) and by round 4, 13.2. I then went for debulking surgery on April 25th. Robotic surgery was performed removing my omentum with 1 small nodule and a full hysterectomy at UF Health in Gainesville,Fl.

First CT scan after treatment completion
My mom has finished her treatment - all 6 Cycles of Carbo/
taxol
and had optimal debulking surgery. Next week Monday is her first ct scan and Tuesday she meets her oncologist to go over the scan. Her scan after 2 treatments was according to her oncologist “great news”.

Repeat surgery after recurrance
I recurred after 3 months and am on weekly
Taxol
due to be reviewed soon. Surgery has not been mentioned and I haven't raised it as I assumed it just wasn't worthwhile.

Ascites and drain
I am due to start Immunotherapy in 2-3 weeks as I feel I have exhausted most other options with Carboplatin/
Taxol
cisplatin, avastin and now olaparib too. Has anyone had a successful drain without going straight onto chemotherapy I am fearful it will build up again fast while I am waiting.

BCS or Mastectomy
My wife is under going Chemo for her breast cancer and surgery is to follow after Chemo 4AC + 12
Taxol
, Herceptin . Oncologist is asking us whether we want breast conservative surgery or Mastectomy. They need to fix some metallic marker in case of BCS. I invite suggestions or pros and cons of both!
