Hi curly66
How are you? Please hang in there. I know its hard to have a positive attitude. No, I had cisplatin and taxol for 18 treatments. 3 xs every 21 days for 6 cycles. I am in a recurrence now but waiting for chemo, first seeing if an estrogen inhibitor works first for 6 weeks. the waiting game.I also have a negative vibe that chemo with probably be next.
No, I don't think the chemo caused my bowel obstruction. Doctors said it was scar tissue from my first surgery. I think it might have been from the Avastin I was given with my chemo and a combination of scar tissue. Go figure. They never commit. Be brave and feel better. good luck to you and bless you.

Hi Irene...
My oncologist has me on estrogen...I had GCT removed with total hysterectomy in Jan of this year. I'm desperately trying to find out if Estrogen is the way to go..
