    • About Me

      I was first dx'd in 1998, had a total hysterectomy/salpingo-oopherectomy, had 6 months of chemo then I had 5 years clean then it came back in my intestines and spleen. They took out my spleen and a couple inches of intestine and did chemo again. Now it is back in the form of tumors next to my liver. I am happily married, Mother of 2 adult sons and am spiritual although not religious. I get scared a lot

    • Close Ovarian Cancer

      I was first diagnosed with ovarian cancer in July of 1998. I had a total hysterectmy and 6 months of chemo, then I had 5 years NED, Then it came back in my intestines. Lost my spleen and several inches of intestine in that surgery, and 6 mor months of chemo. I am now fighting tunors next to my liver, and it's been 9 years. They are treating me with breast cancer meds, I am now taking Faslodex. Sure hope we find something that works!

      Treatments

      Topotecan Somewhat Helpful
      I had a lot of problems with my blood numbers, both red and white, but was on Gemzar at same time so it could have been that.
      Carboplatin Not Working
      had an anaphylactic reaction to these meds so had to change to Topotecan and Gemzar
