Hi I have been receiving bevicazumah (excuse spelling) for a few months every three weeks. Recently I keep having too much protein in my urine and two weeks ago the same again although my bp was far too high so i wasn’t allowed treatment. This week I’m doing another 24 hour urine specimen today and first thing in morning on Tuesday I have a ct scan, blood tests on Wednesday a face to face appointment with my consultant on Thursday and they will decide if I can have treatment on Friday or if they have to look at other treatment options for men if there is any. Has anyone else found their self in same situation? I am terrified incase this is the end of treatment and I’m trying to put a brave face on for my kids but I have no one else to talk to about this thanks if you’ve managed to read this far and would be greatful to hear from anyone else going through similar 

  • Hi Teresa, sorry for the late reply, been at hospital, and thank you, I hope my MDT is helpful too, I think there's a push for more people to have face to face appointments again, a lot of people have noticed it, good luck again Teresa, and thank you again for your good wishes and take care. PS your sign off is weird.

    love Eddie xx

  • Hi Teresa, i'm rubbish with technology, "sign off is weird" you put, Stage 4 ovarian cancer travel insurance, most people put their name or username, yours is unusual but I like it, please leave it be, hope your part of Scotland has been sharing the nice weather, and you've been able to enjoy it, there are a few Scottish ladies on the forum who I'm sure you will come across in time.

  • I know what you mean now lol.‘I asked about travel insurance a while ago and ever since travel insurance is at the bottom. I don’t know how to fix that but in future I will still sign off with Karen although I may still have travel insurance.

  • Hi Ann. I’m in the east end a ten minute walk from Glasgow fort. Great when the weather is this i sometimes go for food and some shopping with my two girls, My four boys aren’t so keen on the fort so we usually find somewhere nicer and less noisy if we all go for food. I don’t work for travel insurance I wish I did so I could get a discount to go on holiday lol Karen xx
