Stage 4 ovarian no chemo but hormone pills?

BeHappyKeepTheFaith profile image

Had a suspected bad reaction to chemo (Avastin) Thirty day hospitalization. That was in Sept. Since then only getting hormonal therapy. I’m stage 4 Ovarian. Felt ok but just 2 days ago feeling some kind of radiating pain in my lower back tail bone area, thigh hip area (thigh hip area I felt that strange pain when I was getting my chemo or perhaps just from the cancer?) I’m a lil concerned. Anyway wondering if anyone else with stage 4 ovarian and only hormone pills and how is it working for you?

Yes I'm having tamoxifen hormone treatment and also stage 4. I've been told that you have to be on the pills for at least 3 months before they can see any changes but listening to my body I don't think they are helping in my case.

I'm also worried about thrombosis as my tumours impact my mobility so I don't get much exercise. It's one of the possible side effects of these pills.

I hope your pains are getting better and that you see some improvement in your disease. Good luck Gina x
