hi all
after having side effects from avastin, on the icon7 trial, they allowed me one more dose, and to report any side effects. I was really hoping that nothing would happen as I seem to be seeing this trial as a lifeline- chemo all done in may, and this was a way of still doing something, rather just waiting to see if it came back.
after having severe headaches and vertigo, the dose wasommitted and a brain mri came back clearfor a possible stroke, i hoped that it would be fine but..... only had it yesterday and it kicked in at about 3pm today. bu****r.
I will have to report it and i reckon thats the end of the trial now.
now what do i do? keep my fingers crossed? hope? or all of the above?
