Side effects and possible change of protocol

Hello everyone, 

I am new to CNS, but not new to ovarian cancer, as my name suggests.

I have two questions:

Does anyone else have swollen and tender breasts? They feel like they used to do before I had my period.  I am on a regime of two weeks of Abraxane, one week of Abraxane and Avastin, and the fourth week off.  

My other question is this: this chemo regime was to prevent my hair falling out.  As a result, my chemo schedule will continue through early September, and I need a double knee replacement after that.

However, I have lost my hair, so I'm wondering if anyone else is on Abraxane and Avastin together on a regular schedule.  I can't remember how often that was last time round. Is it once a week?

I look forward to hearing from other Ovarian Cancer survivors.  Thank you.
