Hi everyone,
Just wondering if anyone else is undergoing treatment with just the Herceptin injection for 9 months following chemo? I'm due to start tomorrow for every 3 weeks until Jan 2022. Finished chemo in March( the last 4 cycles involved Herceptin iv but being on Docetaxel and Perjeta as well can't say what side effects Herceptin was giving from all of them). I've read the leaflet they give you initially when I signed the chemo consent and it's a whole list of side effects, one of the most terrifying that I've already been through: neutropenia, mouth ulcers, fever, hair loss, chest pains, nose bleeds... I was just hoping that the injection alone wouldn't repeat it all again, how would I cope for another 9 months?? Does the injection hurt when given in the thigh?
