Five year survivor

Hi. I'm Laurie from Ontario. I was first diagnosed at age 48 with stage 2b high grade serous ovarian cancer. I had surgery and 6 rounds of carbo/taxol. That was Sept 2012. I was ok for four and a half years and I had a recurrence March 2017. Another surgery and 6 more chemo . I finished Aug 30th. I have the brip 1 gene and started lynparza about 4 weeks ago. I can help answer questions as I've been through this twice. Looking to connect with others in Canada.
