  • Hi I had them along side my chemo six in total, had my mastectomy in April and started the injections again in June I’m having 12 in total as a ‘mop’ up treatment as my oncologist put it and yes after the second one I have felt very fatigued, they did say that it could happen and I’ve got the 3rd one on Monday and I’m still feeling very tired so don’t know how I’m going to be after Monday.

  • Thank you so much at least I know you've had the same let's hope we feel better soon big hugs xx

  • I had the last of my phesgo injections last September and energy levels improved after that. Not sure if I was still partly recovering from chemo and radiotherapy but I think the injections did make me more tired. X
