Have completed full first line treatment for stage 4 hgsoc. Now on maintenance with avastin. Sensitive nostril seems new even though I had avastin with chemotherapy for 6 cycles. Any suggestions on cause or how to soothe mucous lining? TIA
Today my GP discovered a polyp in my left nostril. Anyone have similar experience? And of course one wonders, is it oc, metastasized?? Google says nasal polyps generally benign but having cancer makes me wonder π€
Blame avastin. Its almost certainly the culprit! My sinuses are terrible when I'm on it and resolved when I take a break. Very common side effect. Humidifier helps slightly in the winter if the stream blows right over your face as you sleep!
Hi I wonder if this stuff would work on my chronic nonallergic Rhinitis....hm-mπ€·
Looks like our KateX pinpointed the culprit. ππ
Hi dunedinjo - I have not heard of the side effect of sensitive nostrils from chemo, however, there are many women on this site who have experienced different side effects and hopefully they can shed some light on this issue for you. Blessings!ππ»
I went to my GP about the painful sensitive left nostril. Turns out I've developed a polyp there. She's put me on steroid nasal spray and will check in 2 weeks. And discuss how to remove and also to confirm it's a polyp and not metastasized cancer. Anyone have similar situation?
