Hi Paula and everyone,
In answer to your ?, My 1st remission was 18 months, 2nd was 13, 3rd was 7 months. They tried a 4th and I stayed stable for about 2 months, then My CA125 started to rise. I've been on the topotecan since.
I'm pleased to hear Bonnie's news!! The side effects are hard to deal with sometimes, but the result is worth it! Take care, stay tough.

    Thank you for telling me that. I haven't been open to a third try with carbo/taxotere because of the potency of those drugs and also the inevitable increase in neuropathy, which has become painful after 2 rounds. But to know that you got 7 months is really remarkable, so thanks and all the best of luck to you now.
