It had metastized  Chemo started and 4 months into chemo I had another lymph node removed on my left side of the groin.  It was benign.  Started chemo agian and finished my 6 rounds.  Two months later I had a laprscopic omenmectomy.  Went into remission for only 4 months and started chemo again.  I have been on a clinical trail for 6month that did nothing to help me get rid of ascites.  The doctors gave up on me and suggested that I get my affairs in order.  I had records changed to another doctor anbd we started Gemzar and taxetere in Feb 2009.  Still doing chemo and CA125 count are at 245.  Hang in there.  I think everyone reacts differently to chemo.  No other types of treatment.  Just try to eat right.  May God Bless you,  DebbieOn 6/10/2009 pray4healing wrote:I was diagnosed with Ovca stage 3 in Dec. 2004,  I had 6 months of Carboplantin and taxol but stopped 4 doses early due to the side effects.  I swear the chemo was killing me faster that the cancer.  I did go into remission for 12 months then a pet-scan showed cancer on my liver.  Started chemo again and had an allergic reaction after the 3rd dose of Carboplantin.  I went into Respitory arrest and almost died.  We waited 5 months then another pet-scan showed that the tumor had grown.  This time I had a Radio-Frequency Ablation which killed the tumor with one treatment.  After 12 more months of remission the cancer spread to a lymphnode  this time I had Cyberknife treatment!!!!  I was in remission after 3 treatments.  It's been 6 months now and so far I'm still in remission.   I really feel lucky to be in remission for the 3rd time and will hopefully stay in remission.    Has anyone else had other treatments besides chemo???  pedinga Thu, 11 Jun 2009 00:00:00 GMT I was diagnosed with Ovca stage 3 in Dec. 2004,  I had 6 months of Carboplantin and taxol but stopped 4 doses early due to the side effects.  I swear the chemo was killing me faster that the cancer.  I did go into remission for 12 months then a pet-scan showed cancer on my liver.  Started chemo again and had an allergic reaction after the 3rd dose of Carboplantin.  I went into Respitory arrest and almost died.  We waited 5 months then another pet-scan showed that the tumor had grown.  This time I had a Radio-Frequency Ablation which killed the tumor with one treatment.  After 12 more months of remission the cancer spread to a lymphnode  this time I had Cyberknife treatment!!!!  I was in remission after 3 treatments.  It's been 6 months now and so far I'm still in remission.   I really feel lucky to be in remission for the 3rd time and will hopefully stay in remission.    Has anyone else had other treatments besides chemo??? pray4healing Wed, 10 Jun 2009 00:00:00 GMT
