I've just finished my 6th, and presumably final treatment of taxol/carboplatin for Stage IC OVCA. The chemo nurse in charge of setting my appointments and writing my orders said on my last discarge papers that the doc may want to discuss consolidation therapy (additional chemotherapy) at my follow-up appointment. Anybody ever hear of this for early-stage diagnosis? This was never mentioned as a remote possibility by my either of my docs - it was told to me as 6 and out. Would appreciate any early-stage survivor input.
