I was diagnosed with OC last July. 6 weeks of taxol/carbo then another 6 weeks of chemo along with RT (Extra chemo was for clinical trial)
I had the Ivor Lewis surgery this past December with no complications. I have been seeing my oncologist about once a month since. Everything has been going well considering. What is typical for checking/testing for any reoccurrence or spreading in the future?

Long weekend in London
Since last June when I had my surgery followed by carbo/
taxol
treatment, Stuart has been my rock. He was born in Luton and has supported Luton Town football club all his life. Any time he has been over in England with work and has had an opportunity to go and see them play he has done so.

Primary Peritoneal Cancer diagnosis
I did not need surgery - and just got done with 8 rounds of chemo (
taxol
and carboplatin) ............ had a pet-scan .........and just discovered more "active" lymphnodes. so - my oncologist is researching what other chemo options might be best.

Waiting times for treatment of recurrence
I will be treated with abraxane and am quite worried as I had a severe reaction to
taxol
. Does anybody on here have any experience with abraxane. Should treatment start sooner rather than later? I know at diagnosis the cancer was very aggressive. The waiting is driving me crazy.

Taxol and eating/drinking soy products?
I'm reading anti cancer, and it states there is an impact on the efficacy of
taxol
if soy products are consumed. Does anyone know about this? I'm trying to find things to combat the menopausal symptoms hence the soy! Thanks

taxol
) just two days ago and ascites is starting again. We saw her consultant on Monday who stated that the ascites just three weeks ago indicated that the cancer was progressing despite chemo. Do any of you have any insights? Thank you!

Hi all, I am wondering if anyone has been troubled by itchy skin. Mainly on upper chest back of neck, behind ears and on inner thighs.
It started about a week before I commenced 2nd line Carboplatin/
Taxol
having been in remission for 6 months. Chemo seems to have exacerbated it and driving me crazy at night mainly when I get hot in bed so not sleeping very well.
