Hi, I have finished chemo and blogged throughout, but this one might help. Good luck

Hi Irishgirl16

Thank you I have read the blog and it is great, really informative.  I’m on paclitaxol weekly for 12 weeks so not sure how I’ll feel sounds like as I start to feel better I’ll have another dose.  The Herceptin and Perjeta are 3 weekly and I’m told the side effects are not so bad.  I work in a school and I’m not going back until January I can work from home if I feel the need.

Hi, are you able to have your Herceptin/Pertuzumab by injection? That's what I have now that the chemo is finished and it is so much quicker and no side effects at all!  Hopefully with weekly chemo, you have low side effects too x

Hi jaksprat57

I’m due to start paclitaxel next week too, like you a 12 week course, was told by oncologist it was one of the more tolerated, doable treatments so fingers crossed for us both   Keep I touch x

Hi MrsPolly, I’m planning for the worse and hoping for the best.  Good luck with you treatment too.️
