H I'm new here too. I was diagnosed in November with lobular and hr2 positive with positive in lymph nodes. There doesn't seem to be many people on here who ate having the same cocktail of drugs. Im have docetaxel, capecitabin, pertuxumab and trastuzemab with 7 days of filgrastim. Every 3 weeks. Im am finally losing my hair 10 days post 2nd session. I seem to be finding it really hard with the tiredness and dizziness with the 2nd dose.BUT after my oncology appointment this week, my lump is now unable to be felt. Yes I did ask why I had a lump when lobular doesn't, to be told everyone different, but it was 5cm. Yes the side effects can be bad, but seem to be worth it for that result .
