Hello,
On my last Herceptin treatment, however , a week ago I started to experience shortness of breath/ breathlessness .
Is this common? Does it go away after treatment? How concerned should I be? Anyone else experience this?
Hi, I've been on Herceptin, firstly by IV and then by Phesgo injection. I have not experienced this, but I'd suggest you have a chat with your oncologist or nurse and make sure you get this checked out so you can be reassured.
Hi I was advised to let unit / onco know if I became breathless so they could check it out .
