Avastin trial & chemo side effects

Finished 6 rounds of chemo (taxol, carboplain, avastin) in Jan, continuing on Avastin every 3 weeks until Dec.  Neuropathy is improving, but still have a lot of muscle pain and fatigue.  Fatigue -mental and physical- comes over like a dense fog, lasts a few hours each day.  Short term memory and comprehension is often poor during these periods.  Use Ultram as a painkiller only when absolutely necessary, otherwise just a BP med.  Walk and use an indoor pool as often as I can. Able to work a few days a week.

How does post-chemo and long term Avastin affect others?

 

Thank you for your consideration.
