Caelyx carbo... First Reccurrance
Well it is three weeks since my first combination of caelyx/carbo and not sure which I hate the most ..this or
taxol
. It's hard to put it into words but
taxol
was painful..really painful but I came round from it within two weeks.

Surgery options for breast cancer
I have started neoadjuvant chemotherapy and have been given 4 cycles of FEC and so far 2 cycles of
TAxol
out of a total of 12 planned. An interim ultrasound shows the reduction in size of both the lisions by half - they are now 6mm and 3mm.

Surgery - Chemo, RT and herceptin
Basically it is I believe Chemo with FEC x 4 and then
Taxol
with herceptin x 4, Radiotherapy & continuation of herceptin as she is ER, PR negative and HER2 positive.

Chemo cancelled this week
My weekly
taxol
got cancelled yesterday, have a temp of 38.3, felt a bit achy but otherwise fine, had bloods done and on a drip for 2 hrs, all bloods came back ok, so they think it's viral but sent me home on antibiotics just to make sure it doesn't develop into something nasty, better safe than sorry

Mouth Ulcers
I had my 3rd chemo
Taxol
/Carbo/Avastin 2 weeks ago and this time I developed such painful mouth ulcers on my tongue and throat. I have never known a pain like this (I had a few with chemo 1&2). It got to the point I just couldn't eat.

Treatment Review
As I have been having chemo since September firstly carboplatin which did not work then on to weekly
Taxol
which I had an allergic reaction with the 2nd. I am going to have a break to give my body a bit of recovery time .She has put me on Tamaxofen to see if it will help with a review in a month.

Carbo/caelyx eye problems
My first chem was carbo/
taxol
and I experienced bad eye flickers throughout. In my small time in remission my retina tore and I had to have laser on it ( very traumatic..hated it). The oncologist said the chemo had not done it.

Ct scan and subcentimeter hydrodensities
Hi I had my first ct scan after having 6 rounds of carboplatin/
taxol
. My scan came back good but they said at the dome of my liver is 2 subcentimeter hydrodensities. They said it was too small for cross sectional imaging. They think it may be small cysts. Anyone have something similar to this?

Continued treatment
Hi just thought I would update you re my mothers treatment - she is presently on weekly dose of carbo and
taxol
- to be honest she is finding it hard - she is exhausted and can manage to walk about a little, literally from her bedroom to the bathroom and downstairs to the sitting room.

Keep getting upset
Had my forth cycle (
taxol
/carboplatin) two weeks ago and I've found this to be my worst treatment. Had another urine infection, twinges around tummy area and can't stop crying. Is this all to do with the chemo and has any of you lovely ladies had this problem? l'm dreading next week (fifth cycle)

I was diagnosed with stage IV PPC in January 2014 and since then have had one round of carbo/
taxol
followed by surgery. I went into remission until last September and have just completed second round of chemo - carbo/caelyx.

My treatments
This will be followed by 12 weekly
taxol
treatments. Also have neulasta auto injector every session. So far I have lost 90% of my hair on my head. Eyebrows still good. The "girl whiskers" have thinned out, yay!! I would say even leg and underarms have thinned too.
