Hoping all works well for you. They have told me I won't be eligible for anything but chemo. I am interested in ivemection or alternative, I don't see much research ever being done on this disease. They first said colon cancer, had resection, then said started in appendix. After three negative tests, found .peritoneal cancer. As of last test had not spread to organs but could be different now. I truly wish you well. God Bless

Never heard of Taxol @#13 but happy it has worked for you this long. God Bless.

Taxol is the first go to treatment for Ovarian and Periteonal cancers. Ask your oncologist. Several people writing on this site are taking Taxol with Carboplatin. I am only able to do chemo ( no more surgery or no radiation). I am resistant to Carboplatin. I took with Gemzar back in August of 2023. Once quit working can’t take again. Not enough research is being done on our disease. I’m taking it a day at a time. Thankful I still am not feeling nauseous or in pain. I never had the fluid build up from the liver yet that several of the patients have had to be get drained and removed. It can always get worse but for now it’s manageable.

I think Ivermectin/ fenbendazol has brought my numbers down after 2 months. 3 weeks on , one week off to give liver a break.

Appreciate all comments from others. Seems we have all drawn the short straw in this dx. I am still struggling with decisions of how to go forward, chemo or no chemo. God bless you all.

I did chemo , 5 months , with 3 fridays of treatment then one Friday off, then I just quit & didn’t do the 6 th month, too sick. BUT, looking back I believe I didn’t really need it, my surgeon said she got it all & I didn’t do my research, so I was scared into doing it. But I’m still here with cancer stem cells that won’t go away. But I feel great and believe my natural path doc has me on a better path. That’s why I feel so great now. Plus positive attitudes, so keep reading do research, a book by DR.Erin L Coneally is amazing with lots of suggestions, she has clinic in CA, that does traditional methods and a clinic for holistic methods. After I had a web visit w/ her I’ve been following her ways….like turning body more ALkaline with filters on shower head, infared sauna, red light,ozone treatments & such. Hope this helps

Just got diagnosed with peritoneal carcinomatosis after Stage IV colon cancer with isolated lung mets. Glad to find this forum of other people to talk to.
