Hi I’m new to this but I have a question to ask for anyone having targeted therapy and on Letrazole. I started Herceptin and Pertuzamab and Letrazole around the same time and since have been suffering with diarrohea has anybody else had this problem
Hi Jungle woman
I haven't been on these drugs, so can't comment about any side effects, but I hope you don't mind me suggesting that you also post this in the breast cancer group as you should find others there who are/have been on these drugs.
If this is something that you'd like to do clicking on the link I've created will take you straight these where you can start a new post in the same way as you did here.
It would be great if you could pop something about your diagnosis and treatment so far into your profile as it really helps others when answering or looking for someone with a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
I do hope that your side effects are short lived
Sending virtual ((hugs))
Hi and welcome to the online community
You're right that every day is a bonus and I wondered what brought you to the community. I've had a look in your profile but you haven't completed it yet.
