Star, have you heard about a new chemotherapy for breast cancer that is suppose to be almost free of side effects? My ovar. cancer responds to the same therapy as breast cancer, and my onc. is thinking about trying  it next if he can get approval from medicare and the Doxil I am taking now doesn't work.

Haven't run across anything like that but will keep my eyes open for you. There are so many new things out there now,  I am really encouraged that we will be seeing longer and better remissions.  This measle therapy is going to be for OVCA recurrance.  Hope that doxil works for you.
