Hello Sandradee, 

Thank you for coming here and sharing your results with us. It's good you know what your treatment plan will be and I hope that the chemotherapy sessions will go well. There is information on our website on Trastuzumab and pertuzumab (the combination of these drugs as an injection is called Phesgo) and the Macmillan site also has detailed information on Phesgo. 

It's often the case that during an important consultant appointment we tend to forget the questions we meant to ask as there is so much to take in so don't worry this is something they will be used to and will have encountered before. Perhaps you could get in touch with your consultant's secretary or drop them a line and explain that you meant to ask some questions and if they could tell you more and explain things to you. Our nurses are also available on this free number 0808 800 4040 if you would like to talk things through with them. Their helpline is open Monday to Friday from 9am to 5pm. 

I also wanted you to know that you are not alone and I've come across several other members of our community who have taken Phesgo before. If you do a forum search by typing in 'Phesgo' in the search bar located at the top, you will see all past relevant threads related to this treatment and feel free to respond to any. There is for example cally22 's Phesgo Success thread you are welcome to have a look at and reply to if you wish to do so.

Best of luck with the start of your treatment and I hope that you will hear from others who have previously embarked on a similar treatment journey. 

Best wishes,
