i was diagnosed may 06. i was 53 and stage 3c. i had surgery then 4 rounds ip chemo cisplatin and taxol which made me really nauseated and sick so switched to iv carboplatin and taxol. last chemo done jan 3rd. felt better by march went back to work, then all this stiffness and joint pain started. my ca125 started creeping up late july, was 76, sept 14. pet ct showed nothing. waiting for oct 19 visit to see if still rising. afraid it is back just seeded around without solid tumor.hope you do well. there is a website called medhelp.org that has a patient to dr. and patient to patient forum you might find interesting. has lots of info . best wishes for you.
