Hi
i had a total hysterectomy in June where they found out I had ovarian cancer Stage 3 2a HG. I have since had 12 lots of paclitaxel and 4 Carboplatin. I was sue to have 18 paclitaxel but I had such a severe rash they have said that they don’t want to give me anymore and I will just have the remainder 2 more carboplatin. They have said that is absolutely fine but it has made my anxious that I’m not having 18. Has anyone else just had 12 paclitaxel and 6 carboplatin? Also once I’m finished I will go onto Olaparib and Avistan has anyone having this treatment. I am BRACA 1.
Hi , I have Stage 4 Serious OC.
My treatment is 3 weekly , are your cycles weekly ??
I have been prescribed 6 cycles of carbo Paxil and after that Avastin.
I had my 3rd cycle on Monday, they decided to start the Avastin on Monday and will give me 25 cycles of that 
.
I'm sorry you feel anxious, could you speak to your nurse or oncologist and ask them if there's a different drug you could go on ?
Hope you get your answers and some peace of mind.

It is really worrying , I'm the same , my CA125 has dropped and I told my CN I was too scared to get excited but she told me I should celebrate my results and be happy.
I think having faith in your team (and trust) is a good start. I'm sure you do 
but there's always that little niggling doubt that haunts us.
