I was DX’d with pretty much same scenario in 2017 sans appendix. I have had chemo off and on since then and have been NED for about 9 months. Longest time ever! Don’t worry about reoccurrence- you can’t do anything about it if it does. Thus just puts stress on you and stress is not good for us. You know your body. You know if something is out of kilter. Tell your doc but if they give you a flippant answer either squeak louder or get another opinion, You are your own best advocate! I was told at the beginning of my journey I had 2 maybe 3 years. It’s been 8 and I’m not pushing up dandelions yet!! My oncologist told me genetics is a crap shoot. and not to put a lot of stock in it. And I haven’t!!! The best person you can recruit for helping you is to ask God to take care of you. He is the one who says when you live or die. I have a whole slew of prayer warriors warting Him everyday to take care of me. I’ve taken the chemo, Rubraca and Lynparza but it’s God’s blessings that have kept me kicking! Put your faith in Him. Love you and you are all in my prayers. Hang in there sugar and have a blessed day!
My reply is meant for all of us facing this menace and I am blessed to be among a group of heroic ladies !
Diagnosed Stage 3c Oct 2021. Debulking surgery same month, then 6 rounds of chemo finished March 2022. Thankfully remain NED.
I was diagnosed 12/2022 had 3 chemos paxitaxil and carbonation with some avistin in there at times then debulking momentum out too. After surgery 3 more chemos and put in maintenance of Lynparza and avistin . I was doing ok till this March 2025 when the scan CT and Pet revealed a pea size attached to my spleen. Spleen removed and recurrence removed successfully. Now on chemo again carbo avistin and Gemzar. Looking at 6 infusions which I’ve completed one. Doing ok but my vision is affected. So time before recurrence 28 months.
I am thinking of you and hope you get great results
