What follow-up tests are done after chemo?
Hi OC Sisters:
I finished 6 rounds of Carboplatin/Paclitaxol for ovarian endometriod carcinoma stage 2 a few weeks ago, and I am wondering what tests/scans are usually done to monitor recurrences. I am on a 3-month follow-up schedule for 2 years, then 6 months if I remain NED. What sort of follow-up have you had (PET, CT, MRI?)
Also, how long does it take for eyelashes/eyebrows to grow back. Do hair vitamins or topical lash serums help?
Thanks, and Happy New Year!
