For Ovarian Cancer "Diagnosed with 3B serous ovarian cancer in June 2020, had radical hysterectomy, oophorectomy, salpingectomy, cervix and omentum removal, followed by 5 months of chemo (paclitaxel and carboplatin). No evidence of cancer. Started on 2 daily capsules of Zejula in January 2021. In the 5 1/2 months since, I’ve had 4 episodes needing intervention: twice had to interrupt treatment due to low platelets, and twice needed blood transfusions because of severe anemia. The doctor is reluctant to lower the dosage, but I find the 3 weeks leading up to the transfusion intolerable."

For Ovarian Cancer "I agree with VCW22, December 13, 2017. This drug 'is killing me.' WTH is the manufacturer doing? First month NO problems, FIRST week of 2nd month-immediate fevers, extreme fatigue/exhaustion, and shortness of breath. I am having a chemist analyze what is the second batch sent to me. I will NEVER take it again!"

For Ovarian Cancer "Maart 2021 kreeg ik te horen dat ik eierstokkanker heb fase 4. Na 6 maanden chemo, elke week kreeg ik te horen dat ik niet in aanmerking kwam voor een operatie en palliatief was. Men stelde me Zejula voor om mijn tijd te kunnen verlengen. Begonnen in oktober 2021 en tot hier toe zeer tevreden. Mijn lichaam aanvaardt het op lichte bijwerkingen zoals vermoeidheid en constipatie na. Ik neem elke avond 200 gr. Tot nu toe dus gunstig effect, hopen dat dit zo mag blijven maar oncoloog was gisteren toch heel positief. We blijven ervoor gaan."

For Ovarian Cancer "I was taking 200. They will get my sick, feel tired, fatigue, headache, nausea, back pain, feel tired, no energy. So I am taking 100, still having the same effects. I guess I need to give it time to set in the body."
