Hello Everyone,
I just turned 56 in August, was diagnosed with stage 4 serous ovarian cancer Sept 2017. Had surgery (hysterectomy, omentectamy and debulking) 8 rounds of chemo and cancer was gone but recurrence July 2019. Had another surgery to remove spleen and debulking and 6 more rounds of chemo. Was put in clinical trial August 2019 and currently taking Olaparib twice daily. Last CT scan 2 weeks ago showing no sign of disease, yay!!! I decided to join this group as I constantly think to myself, I'm not the only one out there, I wonder what everyone else is experiencing? I have read your stories and gives me great joy to hear that others on the Olaparib drug are doing well! This gives me hope and happiness and I would like to continue to chat with others who have experienced the same things as I have. I continue to remain positive and always say "one day at a time". Glad to finally get my voice out and meet everyone!!!!
