Hello I am in search of women who fit the following and would love to hear your account either here or through a private message or to my email (downsizeandpack@gmail.com). If you already shared your story with the forums or myself, please send me a new message so I can find you again. I need to find everything within the next two weeks. So if you fit the following please get in touch ASAP, thanks so much.
1. You were told you were Platinum Chemo resistant or refractory, but tried Platinum again at a later date and it was effective. Did you get treated in Canada or the USA and if in Canada, where and with what oncologist?
2. You were told you were Platinum Chemo resistant or refractory, but had debulking anyway, after knowing this, and had good results (either sub-optimal or optimal). In the USA or in Canada and if in Canada, where and with which oncologist?
As usual, I'm turned down for debulking surgery and told it's because I'm Platinum resistant/refactory.
