2nd Taxol/Carbo completed
Stage IIIa - complete removal of cancer 10/8/15 - adjuvant chemo
Taxol
/Carbo. Completed my 2nd session last Monday 5th Ocober. The pain in my legs has not been so severe this time but has lasted longer, the constipation has been helped by the Laxido that the doctor prescribed.

Meeting with oncologist.
I'm disease free at the moment and although I presented in June at Stage 4, he confirmed that I am now Stage 3c due to the fact that I had responded so well to chemo (
Taxol
/Carboplatin). I can only conclude this is good news! He has scheduled 4 more
taxol
/carboplation and then 1 year on Avistan.

Night sweats
I am on Avastin and weekly
taxol
and have been for several months and have had an occasional night sweat but recently I have had them every night getting up during night to change bed wet as well. Has anyone else suffered these while on treatment and are there any tips to avoid them . Thanks Fiona

How long after your last dose of chemo does it take to start feeling somewhat normal again.....or it that just a dream I'm having?
I'm so thankful to God that I've rebounded after having so many rounds of
taxol
/Carbo, debulking surgery, re admitted to hospital with small bowel obstruction. My last CT scan showed clean, my CA 125 went from 896 to 25. I just had, hopefully, my last chemo on Sept 29.

Primary Peritoneal cancer
I am aware that this test can show a false positive or false negative but as someone who had a count of 8000 on diagnosis that came down rapidly with carboplatin and
taxol
I argue that I must be someone who shows a true positive.

Chemo not working
I'm on 4th line weekly
Taxol
at the moment. Had 9th one yesterday. The CA125 initially decreased but now is rising again. I had 4 Carbo/Caelyx before this with only a month's break so this is not a good situation to be in.

The waiting game

taxol
now, ca125 was 2662 before treatment then to 995 after 1st, 426 after 2nd which I have been told is an excellence response. Had a scan on weds and my team discuss next couse of action next weds. Will it have gone? Will it be debulked enough for them to operate?

After surgery.....
I was overjoyed when I was told there was no evidence any more of cancer in these organs, as the chemo (
Taxol
/Carboplatin )had killed the disease). So, I am officially disease free! Some more chemo later in the year is scheduled I think.

Ongoing Care
I finished my avastin in May after 18 treatments following 6 carbo/
taxol
, debunking surgery then a further 2 cycles carbo/
taxol
. I had a good response. Follow up is now 3 monthly with Consultant. Do you ladies have CA125 taken at each visit?

Recurrence
Saw onc who says I need to try
Taxol
alone now 3 weekly . Just wondered if anyone had much success with this. I asked about Avastin after 2nd line and my then Onc dismissed it without much discussion. I didn't realise at the time I could only have it after second line.

Back on the merry go round :-(
Sooo need to hear from ladies who have faced liver recurrences and come through the other side - it's only been 8 months since 1st line chemo of
taxol
and platin finished so am feeling really scared at what the future holds! Would they give me something different this time?
