She had breast cancer as her primery cancer, which spread to her bones and liver as secondary cancers. Chemo then surgery then radiation got rid of the breast and bone cancer leaving her with a small section of cancer in her liver. Hormone traetment hasnt worked and as I say, she is just about to start on chemo and avastin. Will keep you posted as to how she is responding.

I am really interested in speaking to people who have found Avastin did not help with their treatment. I am looking at whether it is as effective as people are told it is will be.

The first infusion caused his blood pressure to soar. As a result, he had to take blood pressure medication to stabilize his pressure. It was a while before they tried another infusion of Avastin but we all knew that this next infusion of Avastin wouldn't do anything to help my husband. It was just a last hope gesture and even the nurse that was giving my husband the drip took the doctor aside and questioned why he would give this infusion to my husband when they all knew that this drug could do nothing for my husband. So in my opinion, this drug did nothing to help my husband except cause him to have high blood pressure. My husband had 2 infusions of Avastin combined with his liver cancer drug Nexavar.
