Persistant ascites after 5 rounds of cisplatin chemo??? What is going on?
by LILLIAN577, Nov 10, 2009 08:14PM
What is going on .... My mom has undergone 5 rounds of chemo and saw her surgeon/gyn onco at moffit yesturday. I love to see him for a consult every now and then. He said her belly swelling is ascites. About 3-4 lbs probably. He wants her oncologist to add taxol to her treatment. Im so concerned about the ascites. Anyone experience ascites that wont go away even with treatment of chemo!
