Hi,

In December I was diagnosed with stage 3 B cancer. I had 6 months of chemo and then had 3 weeks of shingles. I had debulking surgery in March.  I started to have some gastro symptoms a couple of weeks ago which increased with distension and pain.  I did get 1.7 litres of fluid drained this morning.  I don't have my latest ca-125, but started with 15,000.  A CT scan a month ago showed some spots on my liver and lungs, but there is a possibility they aren't cancer since they were there before. Since my surgery, I have had issues with eating and can only eat small amounts and only have a short list of items.  I see the oncologist again on Monday, but it's likely I will go back from treatment.  I am trying not to be a wreck and would appreciate anyone else's experience.  I am feeling angry, scared and cheated as I thought I'd have some time without treatment. All of my genetic tests came back negative.  My carbo/taxol treatments were rough and Neulasta gave me a lot of pain. What can I expect?

Thank you
