My sincere thanks to everyone, and please forgive me—mistyping mistyridge5 was a complete slip of the finger on my part.

Hello everyone, I hope you are all doing well. My wife was diagnosed with ovarian cancer (specifically small cell carcinoma of the ovary) about 15 months ago, and since then, she has undergone two surgeries and completed 13 cycles of chemotherapy. Just three days ago, an ultrasound revealed that her lymph nodes have enlarged again. It hasn't even been three months since her last round of chemo, and it’s been nine months since her second surgery. Now, it looks like she will be heading back into surgery, followed likely by more chemotherapy. I was wondering if anyone here has navigated this exact path before—specifically, what kind of chemo protocols or specific medications were prescribed? Additionally, has anyone found certain supplements or medications helpful during this process? Also, did anyone receive radiation therapy alongside their chemotherapy? Thank you so much, and my best wishes to you all.
