    I have Small cell cervical cancer stage 4
    I was diagnosed in Jan. I had 6 rounds of chemo using carboplatin, and VP16, also zometa for my bones. I finished in May I saw the doctor today (8/12/09) and it has returned. I have to go back on the 13th to find a new course of treatment. She referred to it as chemo resistant due to the fast growth after chemo. What is happening with you?

    Small cell cervical cancer stage 4
    Hello you two, just come across this website, I too have stage 4 small cell cervical cancer that has metastised to my neck and my right ovary. I have had 3 rounds of carboplatin and etopiside followed by 3 rounds of CAV, then 6 weeks of radiotherapy, none of this has shrunk the tumors, so have now been sent for drugs trials at the Royal Marsden in Sutton Surrey, UK. I have just had all the preliminary tests, and am due to go back to consent on the 9th September, where I will basically become a guinipig, with the phase 1 drugs that haven't been used on humans before, here's hoping hey!!! I am doing OK and haven't got many symptons, a bit tired and heavy legged, and a swollen stomach, apart from that, no pain. Regards, Sharon
