It will be very unpleasantness to have reoccur cancer and also the side effects of the chemo drugs. One thing is sure that you are receiving the ideal treatment. There is no another way at this time. Avastin will cause some side effects but not as much as carbo and taxol. The tiredness and bloating is some exent due to Avastine. Doing positive thinking and attitude will give you much strength to overcome these problems.
