Today I was told I have ovarian cancer 99.99%. My surgery is Feb 9.

I was wondering if anybody from stage IV had ovarian cancer as mets.

    Sorry, I have not been here for a while. It is new primary ovca. Today I found out I am BRCA 1+. i started chemo in March and I am due for my 4 sessions out of 6. I am doing IV/IP Taxol/Cisplatin. It is a very hard chemo, after the second session I wanted to give up.



    The genetic counselor told me today that there is no cure and most likely it will come back, but because I am BRCA1+ they know how to target the chemo and he said that I need to look at this like a chronic disease and I will live a long time. He said he is promising me decades not years. I hope he is right, but I don't have too much hope left. I am not sure I can live my life always in chemo.
