Hug
Chemo went pretty well except at the end when I had to go to the bathroom and the Saline stopped dripping and they had to try different positions to get it back in. Finally, with one holding down and the other pushing in they were able to flush it and did that a number of times to finish up the solution. I go back next friday.
Good Luck
Here's hoping for a LOW, LOW ca125 for you! Hugs and best of luck - keeping toes, fingers, etc. crossed for you! LuEllen

Close Ovarian Cancer
My actual diagnosis was primary peritineal Carcinoma Stage III. I had a hysterectomey 4 weeks ago. I start my chemo on the 18th. I am 61 years old with two grown children and one beautiful grandchild. I would love to hear from any who has had the same diagnosis and what your treatment was. I am not sure of the name of my chemo but I will have two portals. One intravenous and one in my stomach.
Close Diabetes Type 2
I am 62 years old and I live in Spring TX, right outside of Houston. I have two grown children, both married and one grandchild. I was diagnosed with Type II Thirteen years ago. I became insulin dependent right away. I am on two types of insulin. Novolin N for long acting and the R on a sliding scale. At the end of July '07 I was diagnosed with Ovarian Cancer. The steroids they give me with my chemo play havoc with my bood sugar.
Treatments
- Insulin (Regular and NPH) Working / Worked
- I like this regimin of using two types of insulin, because if I am too high I can take the R on a sliding scale and bring it down right away.
Open Health Care Reform
I was diagnosed back in July 07 with ovarian cancer. I had company paid health insurance at the time, so everything was taken care of. Well now that I am through with chemo and ready to back to work they laid me off, saying that things had gotten very slow and they couldn't afford to pay me so they laid me off. My benifits had run out about two months before, so I had been paying cobra. My last payment to cobra was late so they cancelled me. Now I have no job and no health insurance.
