Hi! new to this site. In my 4th year of ovarian cancer. Have had 1 remission of 15 mths, had numerous chemo treatments, last which was carbo/doxil, for 5 cycles; then 5 maintenance treatments. Unfortunately, CA125 started rising and new evidence of disease, along with the old. I'm being treated in NYC, MSKCC. I now start on Topotecan/3 weeks on, 1 off. Would like to know how it is tolerated? Any side effects? Loss of hair (not so important, but my daughter is getting married in Nov of this year)? Tiredness? ETC.?
The maintenance doxil has been pretty good, only skin problems. God Bless you all. Rene
