Hello Jayboo and welcome to Cancer Chat,

You might be interested in reading [@Pauline12]‍ 's post here. Pauline posted today on the forum and seems to be in a similar situation having been diagnosed with Stage 4 ovarian cancer last November. She doesn't mention whether she had Avastin but she also had chemotherapy and an operation four weeks ago. I will make sure to mention your thread too so that you two can connect and share your experiences as I am sure you will have a lot to say to one another!

We also have some information on Avastin our website here which may be useful to you.

I hope others will be along soon to tell you how they have been doing on this drug.

Best wishes,

Lucie, Cancer Chat Moderator
