Weekly Paclitaxol
Has anyone had success with with weekly
taxol
? I've got two stubborn cancerous pelvis lymph nodes. I'm deemed platinum refractory. Thanks.

Reaction to Taxol (Paclitaxel) and alternatives?
I had my first chemo last week and reacted to the
taxol
(paclitaxel) so could only receive bev and carboplatin. I will be switched to taxotere for my next treatment. Wondering if anyone else has had a reaction to
taxol
and then received taxotere.

Maintenance Chemo
I confess that I don't want to overdo the
taxol
treatment. Thanks.

Radiotherapy for OC in lymph nodes
I'm on my fourth recurrence and currently on weekly
taxol
, but two lymph nodes are still growing, though my CA125 has come down a lot from the start of treatment, but has been very erratic in recent weeks.

Hair loss on taxol
The plan was to administer the
Taxol
slowly for 15 minutes, stop it for 15 minutes, then do a second slow 15 minutes and if all went well, speed it up.. After nearly 15 minutes, I got a dull achey pain in my pelvis. I toldd them, of course and they stopped the
taxol
and had the PN examine me.

The test will be when the
Taxol
is discontinued and whether the Herceptin/Perjeta is the right move or not.. Has anyone else ever dealt with something like this? Thank you for listening 💕

COVID
I"ve phoned both onc and rad onc and am waiting to hear back about starting
Taxol
tomorrow and rads to lower spine on Thursday to see if there is any reason for me to delay either of these. I want to scream! Has anybody had Covid had an impact on treatment?

Doing well on Taxol. TM down by half!
It stopped working and I've been on
Taxol
for about 5 or 6 infusions. CA 27-29 dropped from 725 in January to 355 on Tuesday. So I'm really going to be able to celebrate that anniversary next week! I have hand-foot syndrome. Very little feeling in feet and hands.

Avastin following taxol/carbo
Hi , I have 1 more session of
taxol
/carbo left and my oncologist wants to discuss going onto avastin however, I'm not sure whether that is needed at this stage. I have ovarian 4b and have been debunked. My ca125 levels were 7 before the last chemo 3 weeks ago.

May be doing IV chemo for the first time. Need tips - really freaked out!
I’m having a petscan tomorrow and depending on how it looks, I’ll either be doing Piqray + Faslodex or
Taxol
. And I know they really want me to do the
Taxol
. I’ve had chemo pills a few months back (and it wasn’t fun) but this is new to me and I’m totally terrified.

Chemo question
I had my first
taxol
/carboplatin treatment last week. I had an allergic reaction shortly after starting. Then on days 3-6 I had severe sharp pains in my bones in my back and legs that broke through my pain meds. Now on day 8 I am still struggling with pain, bloating and nauseousness.

New Normal
Good morning beautiful ladies 😀 This week I started my
Taxol
and Herceptin cocktail. Being my cancer mutated from HER2 low to HER2 positive with progression to liver this seems like the most head on approach.

Weekly Taxol And permanent drain
I have also been given the option of weekly
Taxol
to provide better relief from the ascites. If I went down this path, would it then jeopardise my chances of future enrolment on a trial? Your valuable thoughts and experience would be appreciated.

hair starting to fall out after 3rd Taxol infusion
How have you "shaved" your heads? My head started feeling tender a couple of days ago and yesterday I noticed more hair than usual stuck in my hairbrush. Do you just get it cut real short until it all falls out? Ism there something we can do for the sensitivity of our scalp? I never thought about

exciting clinical trial
Xeloda seemed to be working for me but not for long and now I'm on
Taxol
. My CA27-29 has come down by half (no where near normal) and the neuropathy is getting worse in spite of lower dose, so another option is appealing!

Rough few days
I'm scheduled for my first
Taxol
treatment back at the cancer center on Tuesday, I think. I've never had my blood pressure drop low like this before and it was probably due to dehydration. I'm still having to drink alot of water.

Lowered CA125 and a nugget of hope 🙏
After 2 chemo sessions of carbo &
taxol
plus Avastin, my blood test level has reduced from 750 to 586 which is the first positive news I have received since diagnosis mid December 👏 it has given me a huge boost!

I’m still here!
I had a full Hysterectomy and 6 Carbo/
Taxol
chemos. I do have some numbness and peripheral nerve pain from the chemo but No other treatment! I have been able to enjoy many things, seeing my grandchildren grow, look after my elderly mum etc. Each day is a blessing.
