by ajanee, Aug 06, 2007 07:14AM
I have been reading about a vaccine called Trovax and that it is to bring new hope of a cure to people like me with ovarian type cancer, mine is primery peritoneal, is this a fact.I am now 18 months in to this new life with cancer have beaten the first lot which was stage 3 and now have a very small reocurance and am being tried on tamoxofen just now but it is making me very tired. I have accually been very well for the last 6 months apart from depression which I feel is par for the course.

I was reading your post and wanted to respond with a word of encouragement. I'm not sure about Trovax, but if it is successful with your type of cancer, I hope you pursue this avenue with your oncologist. You sound like a very strong woman - and your determination to beat this comes through in your posts. Heck, girl, you deserve to be tired and depressed! Half of the world out there is tired and depressed and THEY'RE not fighting ovarian cancer! There is always hope, always. Go for this new drug - it sounds like it's worth at least asking your doctor about. I know some women on here who have tried different drugs will answer you shortly - I just wanted to say hello and offer you my very best! Please keep us posted.
