L!Congratulations, I’m so happy for you , that is such great news. So thanx, ill certainly celebrate your good news. Iget it on the fatigue and neuropathy for me, but i push myself as much as I possibly can. Sometimes it’s really paid off, i have gotten stronger and feel better in some ways for sure.
Will you do maintenance? The side effects and chemo brain get old and embarrassing. Not sure what all to do.

I will be on Avastin (bevacizumab) every three weeks for two years. It has fewer side effects than carboplatin and paclitaxel. Most of its side effects have to do with bleeding and clotting. It blocks the growth of new blood vessels, which tumors require in order to grow. It’s not really chemotherapy, so I don’t expect chemo brain. 🤞
