Hi Victoria,
I have been under treatment for fallopian tube cancer, which is treated like ovarian cancer, for 5 1/2 years. I was initally treated by what was supposed to be the best in my state, Florida. I went to Shands Hospital at the University of Florida. Unfortunately, I spent 4 years of treatment and recurrence with no doctor willing to try anything new or different. My only regret is waiting that long before going to The Cancer Treatment Center of America. The minute I got there I knew that was the place to be. The doctors are wonderful, caring, understanding and knowledgable of all the newest drugs and techniques out there. I see Dr. Williams. There are 4 CTCA and they will tell you which one they will send you to. I go to Chicago. It is wonderfully unlifting to go the CTCA as they treat the whole body and mind, not just the cancer. They give you hope as do the other patients there who were given 6 months, went to CTCA, and are celebrating 6 years!
Ovarian cancer is a real battle and you are so smart to research your options before jumping in with both feet. I believe if I had done the research you are doing I would have gone to the CTCA right off and not have had the recurrence's that I have had.
My prayers and thoughts are with you and I wish you only the best. Good luck in all you research and recovery.
