Greetings Everyone,
I started my journey in May 08, surgery chemo with Tax and Carbo. I lost my hair and got really tired nine rounds later I had second look surgery. CA 125 was down to 23 then they put me on Gemzar and Cisplatin for six months two weeks on two weeks off. 12 sessions and nothing worked. Break while they got me ready for a trial of Doxil, Dicedabean and a vaccine. It was a four month trial I could only get through two. My fluid went up twice, once drained 12 pounds and the second time...10days later I drained of 15 pounds. I am now hoping to go on Advesin and Tax. My cancer has spread throughout my stomach and I am terrified. They haven't given me much hope. I am 55. Going to see the Doctor tomorrow, any comments?? Wouldn't it be nice wake up from this nightmare?? Its been 18months of hell as you all know. If the side effects don't get you the disease will. However we are still all here so we keep fighting the good fight?
Thanks for any feedback. Lori
