Which chemo
When I saw the Doctor this week he said it would be carbo and
taxol
again. He said caelyx is used when you're platinum resistant. Caelyx would be used alongside carbo though Bit confused. Xx

Some other infusion ideas
Hi everyone, I have been on weekly
Taxol
and Avastin, but unfortunately have had bowel inflammation which meant I could never have it weekly and they are now probably going to stop it. I am really disappointed as it looks as if I now cannot tolerate
Taxol
and I am also carbon resistant.

Abraxane -chemo used in Ireland for O.C.?
It seems it is a type of
taxol
drug but carried into the body via albumen, where as the paclitaxel & docetaxel are dissolved in solvent.

Feeling really low, half way through eight cycles of carbo/
taxol
with two spells in hospital and endless outpatients visits for nephrostomy problems too, I kept myself from despair by planning a visit to New York and I actually made it across the Atlantic for the first time in my life last week!

Ovarian dermoid cyst /pelvic tumour
I completed 6 cycles of carbo/
taxol
and 31 rt sessions. My tumour is localised with no disease anywhere else . My onc says great result from my scan last week but they still will not remove it and he says risk of bleeding .

Overdue update and mini meltdown in the car.
I had my first monthly dose of monthly maintenance
taxol
today. Being alive is more important than being bald, but I'm just so tired of - looking - sick. Wigs are hot and itchy and I hate hats and such. My hair just got back to a very short pixie... and I get to say goodbye all over again.

Advice on next steps
After surgery her oncologist recommended
Taxol
and Carbo but sadly she seemed to have an allergic reaction to
Taxol
after first dose so continued with Carbo on it own for the rest of that cycle. At the end of chemo she was NED and CA125 was "normal".

Rising CA125
I had 3 Carbo/
taxol
followed by sub-optimal debulking then another 3 Carbo/
taxol
. NED in February 2017 (some microscopic disease was still present, but not considered troublesome). I've had 13 out of 18 cycles of Avastin and have pretty much resumed a normal life.

Alternative treatments
I had a total hysterectomy and chemotherapy with carboplatin and
Taxol
. I had my last treatment August 9. Has anyone done any alternative treatments with the result of being cancer free/in remission? Possibilities: ketogenic diet, exercise with oxygen, supplements, coffee enemas etc

I’m going back on carbo/
taxol

Hi there, I am on weekly
taxol

Opinions and advice needed
I started chemo in mid May with the familiar Carboplatin/
Taxol
combination, but on the first session I had an anaphylactic reaction to the
Taxol
, so only managed to have the Carboplatin.

Back to Black
Me: 2 cancers - Ovarian 3c and Colon 3c, 3 rounds of chemo for OC (
taxol
carbo platin or whatever the hell it’s called), surgery to remove ovaries, cervix, uterus, fallopian tubes, omentum, and resection of sigmoidal colon.

Has anyone had bowel issues on taxol
Hi everyone, I am on weekly
taxol
and avastin, but having a lot of pain in lower abdomen two days afterwards. I think it is diverticulitis. I am also getting a wisdom tooth flare up after every infusion. I've had to miss lots of weeks because of infections etc.

Chemo question
Started chemo of
taxol
/carbo on June 26. Had allergy to
taxol
so they needed to change it. Today was my next one where instead of every 3 weeks for 6 total of taxpayers/carbo they switched it to lower doses of Abraxane/carbo every week. My questions: has anyone done this?
