Damage to kidneys
Hello, I am wondering if any of you are among the 30% of women whose kidneys are affected by the chemo. I just learned that I am one. I am on paclitaxilel and cisplatin, cisplatin is the likely cause and they have reduced this by one fifth. as a result I am looking at taking fewer and fewer of the "supporting" drugs to not…

Hopefully, I've just over looked her?
Now that Alexandra is somewhat NOT MIA, has anyone heard from Susan P.? I jump around the boards, but don't remember seeing her post. The last log in here was Nov. 15, 2015, I think. Just missing her. Thanks, Debra(Jo) Uterine Board
My friend needs your prayers
My good friend is dying after fighting ovarian cancer for 5 years. Only two weeks ago we were hanging out together in the hospital, complaining about bland food and trying on wigs; and now she is in a coma on life support.

Possible recurrence of Ovarian Cancer
I was treated for Ovarian cancer 12 years ago, breast cancer 10 years ago, and skin cancer 2 years ago. Last week my doc found a mass in the pelvic area and I'm terrified. I'm 66 years old and I don't think I have the emotional strength to go through more chemo and surgery. Chat rooms were extremely helpful while I was on…
