- Hello all. i havent posted for a while. I finished 3 months of topetecan in early March, and had a scan. Came back that the tumors had grown slightly. Doc wanted to stay on it for another 3 months. i did not like that idea at all, and asked to be...

- hello. i have recently started a new chemo. Doxil. I am also in a drug study for something to boost the immune system while on chemo so patients dont miss any treatments due to low counts. i was happy to be in the study, and i was certain i would be...
- So, i had my last chemo treatment in april, and got to ring the bell.... c-125 was at 11, very few side affects from the chemo. it seemed remission was sure thing. that was not the case. i went for my ct-scan last week, and went to doctor today for...
- This may seem like an odd question, but i would like to know what others think. While i realize what ovarian cancer is, and the need for a gyno/oncol. is it standard to get a pelvic exam every month when i see the doctor? My thinking is everything...
