Anyone have any idea what's next?
They said the cancer was dotted across the bowl like a pearl necklace and chemo was the only option, however she was allergic to
Taxol
and had 5 cycles of carbo/docetaxel before her bowel perforated and the sepsis set in.

Results day not as good as I'd hoped - Low grade serous
Hi all After 24 weeks of weekly
taxol
3rd line and feeling really well throughout results day on Monday. Consultant said he was pleased generally with the scan although there are still some small bits left and a few have calcified.

How I Deal with the Fear of Metastatic Breast Cancer
I have been one of the very fortunate women who had a miraculous response after taking
Taxol
and Herceptin for several years. I have been "NED" (no evidence of disease) for several years and have been off all medication for two years.

Out of remission- CT Scan showed cancer in lymph nodes
I was diagnosed with Uterine cancer in Jan 2016, had a hysterectomy shortly after, finished
taxol
/carbo in around July or August 2016. Now August 2017 out of remission, first CA 125 trippled to 19 (from 6.8), then CT scan showed concentration in lymph in center of chest.

Carbo causing surgical incision pain.
On Days 7 and 15 (
Taxol
), she experienced no side-effects. She started Day 1 (Carbo +
Taxol
)today and is having the burning pain once again. Doctors have reassured us that this is not uncommon after surgery - however, we are still worried.

And the Pointless* trophy goes to...
Two arms allow trialling of the PARP inhibitors, and the other arm is standard weekly
Taxol
(with a sweetner of access to Olaparib if your cancer gets worse...). Guess which arm I was selected for? Hey ho.

Scan results, not what I was expecting 😕
Finally I'm considering an alternative route altogether by seeing a herbalists to not only see if it can help in terms of cancer but to help make me stronger in case I have to go back on the horrid carbo/
taxol
again 😕 so anyone have any recommendations in regards to this?

Pain after chemo (carboplatin/Taxol)
The first dose of
Taxol

First treatment
Well a short time after my diagnosis, I have now had my first chemo treatment of carbo and
taxol
. The procedure was fine and I was well prepared for the possible side effects from my CNS. Days 4 to 7 have been hell, I have not even managed to get out of bed.
