My Gynecologic, Oncologist, Surgeon removed a 39 pound tumor on my right ovary and my left ovary.. He then spent hours removing all the cancer he had found after doing scans, etc. When I asked him how long I had.....he replied "Six months".....I was 62 years old.

I experienced the symptoms from Taxol, as we did six 28 day cycles of "hard chemo" Day 1 was I/V infusion, days 2 and 8 were I/P infusions.
