Hi Guys -
Checking in to see how everyone is doing. Had a Hycamtin treatment today and it is 1:50 am and I am still awake from the roids. I went to that Ovations site and found that there is a way to get rid of the allergy to the Platinum agents!!! Thought I was done for being that I could not do it again, but me Doc told me that that was going to be their next step if the Hycamtin did not work. If you did not look at that site it is worth it.
Harriet - go online and type in Ovarian Cancer Vaccine. From what I understand it is in Germany and you need a clean CAT scan to use it. It is very expensive though. Maybe less being that you are in Europe. I know what you mean about being BRCA positive, I am too and have a daughter and a grandaughter.
My hair is coming out in fistfuls. I picked out a new funky wig tonight and am going to get buzzed tomorrow after treatment. My boyfriend went with me for the wig and I will kill him if he tells me one more time that it makes me look ten yrs younger. Once or twice was nice but over and over??? Was he trying to tell me that I'm starting top look old?? Got out the scarves & Yankee baseball hats. I am good to go; I know I'll feel better once I get buzzed - no more mess!!!
Colleen - please let me know when you start the taxol and IP. You will be in my prayers that it goes well.
