Hi is any one on Phesgo and what side affects do you get . x
Hi, I had 12 phesgo injections and zero side effects from any of them. For sure the easiest of all my treatments. Best wishes
Hi thank you for replying. I have had 24 phesgo and Denosumab every three weeks and my consultant says I have to stay on them for life . Just a few side effects such as watery eyes, running nose, my nails don't grow and now i have the skin problem . But these are small problems compared to some people .
So have you finished your treatment. x
Hi, yes I had my 4 year check up in July, now just on letrozole and coming to the last of my 6 monthly zoledronic acid treatments which were for 5 years. Best wishes
Hi Daisy24. Have you had an operation. My consultant said I will be on Phesgo for life with no operation , just wandered if any one was the same as me . x
Hi, I'm on cycle 12 of 18. Immediate side effect was a painful acne on my scalp by 6th cycle it was on my chest. I am given antibiotics with every round now, it reduces the flare up but still get the acne. Have had runny nose throughout, peripheral neuropathy and muscle aches. Also some diarrhoea but overall far less debilitating than chemo
