Heyy guys,
Has anyone else ever had to take these Olaparib/Lynparza treatment tablets before?? If so have ya'll ever really suffered from them and if you have suffered from them then what did you do/take instead like what are the alternatives??
I have Stage 4 Serous Carcinoma Ovarian Cancer and I was first prescribed 300mg of these tablets about 2 months ago and I took them for a couple of weeks but they just made me feel incredibly rubbish like I was just soooo so tired and out of energy all the time and I felt really nauseous and could barely eat like there was literally one day were all I ate was a banana which definitely isn't great at all, especially when I've literally been trying to gain weight!!
I just wasn't functioning like a regular human being anymore, so I stopped taking the tablets as advised by the doctors and I immediately felt soooo so much better and went back to normal again within a few days!
I had my regular treatment (Avastin/Bev) thy I usually have every 3 weeks on Thursday after just over a month delay and they gave me two new boxes of the same tablets but this time they've lowered it by 50mg, so I now have 250mg instead of 300mg and I've been taking these for about 4 days now (since Thursday night) and I once again just feel absolutely rubbish! I'm extremely tired and have no energy whatsoever, my body is always really achey, I have no thoughts or emotions anymore and I always feel really nauseous and can barely eat again!!
I've been trying soooo so hard to get my life back again after this absolutely horrendous year and I finally almost felt like a normal and somewhat healthy 26 year old human once again, but now af
ter these tablets I just feel like I'm going backwards and back to where I was at the beginning of the year when I was very seriously ill and it's just soooo so frustrating and disheartening for me and even my family 
We're gunna give the tablets a week and if I'm still bad then I'm just gunna stop them as I really don't wanna be feeling all ill and rubbish over Christmas, especially as I already sadly missed Christmas last year due to being very seriously ill (I was diagnosed with Cancer in March/April this year)
My parents are gunna ring up my team at the Cancer centre to see what they say and stuff anyway, but we were just wondering if anyone else has had to take these tablets and how they've affected you and what you did about it or what alternatives there are and stuff if they were also rubbish for any of you??
Thankyou
