Hi Peg,  I am sorry I haven't posted a response. I don't check this forum everyday because there doesn't seem to be alot of activity. I was hoping that I would find a site like this but with more activity. To answer your question...I am fine. I think...I had some pain in my upper abdomin , went to the oncologist, had a cat scan done and they didn't find anything. I think it might be a hernia or an ulcer. I am going to my Gastric bypass doctor tomorrow. Wish me luck! I know what you mean about getting back to "normal". I went to a class for life after cancer and they called it the "New" normal.  So let's get back to our "new normal" life. Take care and God Bless, Linda

Hello David,  I am sorry that no one posted a reply sooner...I just found this forum by accident. It doesn't look like it is very active. I hope that is because they are all healthy and have started a "New " normal life after cancer. Hope this note finds you well. I had RNY in January 2005 and was treated for ovarian cancer in 2007. I did not have any problems with any of my chemo meds. The steroid pills that I had to take the night before my treatments where small. I shouted from the roof tops that I had had gastric bypass and I double checked all my medicines with my GB surgeon.  My chemo therapy regimen was taxol and carboplatin. I did have some other drugs in there as well but I can't remember there names. My red blood count was low so I was given a shot of Aranesp to boost my count.  I had 6 sessions of chemo and my last treatment was October 2007. What chemo drugs will they be giving you? How many treatments will you have?  I am glad they fast tracked you and I wish you well. My thing is make sure you tell everyone and I do mean everyone that you have had gastric bypass surgery.  There are so many different drugs out there that they can use that are gastric bypass friendly. Keep posting and let us know how your treatments are going. Linda Barrett
