Now my CA 125 is up to 28 so they want me to start weekly
taxol
which I’m thinking about so it is very helpful to hear your experiences with that. I must say I enjoy hearing from my UK sisters and learning of issues with the healthcare system.

Carboplatin is Causing Low Platelet Count
I went through 3 rounds of chemo (carboplatin and
taxol
). Then I had a break as I had surgery to remove my ovaries, fallopian tubes, uterus and omentum). There was no visible cancer at the time, but the pathology report showed microscopic cancer in several areas of the peritoneum.

Recently diagnosed with ovarian cancer
Doc will start me on
taxol
and paraplatin once every 3 weeks for 6 treatments. I am anxious about the side effects.

Stage IVb Uterine Cancer
I then had 18 treatments of
taxol
and carbo. My CA-125 was down to a 7. It climbed again a few months later and I’m now on doxil and avastin for about 6 sessions. My hands, legs and back really hurt. I’m scared about my prognosis. Have any of you had the same diagnosis/treatment? Thank you.

Sore throat. Chemo or cancer?
Did anyone have these as side effects of carbo/
taxol
& if so how long do they last? I’m worrying that I might have another cancer that I don’t know about.

Immu-132
However I’m starting a new clinical trial in two weeks that is
taxol
and a glutaminase inhibitor. Cb-839. I’m also having a liver biopsy to confirm that I am triple negative. Jesus is holding me tight.

Struggling with news of relapse
My oncologist is aiming for stability by using Letrozole, trying to delay the weekly
taxol
/avastin until a later stage. Anyone any experience of this?

Choices - any views please from those who really know?!
which starts with
Taxol
then adds in cedanarib and finally olaparib ( both know effective and exciting for some women!) which mean we would move up to Manchester. Scary to leave my support team daughter etc behind! Final choice :
Taxol
- again - starring on 12 th June on my 60th birthday (!!)

Scan results.
Course of action is weekly
taxol
. Bye bye little bit of hair. Thought I’d opt for weekly as can get it done in my summer holidays off work and it will be two months rather than four. Hopefully after the chemo I’ll be able to have niraparib. Keeping my fingers crossed for that.

Pain after chemo
I had surgery & 6 rounds of carbo/
taxol
. I had the last chemo last week & the past day or two I’ve noticed stinging pain around my ribs, pubic bone area. I also have a throbbing sort of where my ovaries would be if you know what I mean.

Decision time: What was your second line treatment and did it work....(especially for platinum resistant)
After just 4 months of remission from 10 rounds of carbo/
taxol
my CA125 is at 850 (was 27) and scan shows progression. My oncologist is recommending Doxil as a single agent, one infusion every 4 weeks. In the meantime I am getting another opinion next Thursday.

This past December 2017, I was diagnosed with a metastatic breast cancer, affecting my peritoneum, and have just completed 6 rounds of
Taxol
. I am HER2 negative and estrogen and progesterone positive.

2nd Line finished
She finished her 2nd line treatment of Carbo/
Taxol
a couple weeks back. She unfortunately had a horrible reaction to carbo during her last infusion, so that had to be stopped, and now she's deemed allergic to it, as it was her third time in a row having a reaction. But on to the good news.

Third cancer is serous, caused in part by tamoxifen
I am 8 days out from my first carbo/
taxol
infusion. My protocol is 6 cycles. Every three weeks. Then vaginal cuff brady radiation. This does scare me. I remember the process for breast cancer radiation. It is a lot especially after the infusions.
