Phesgo only

Hi Amelie, I don’t seem to have any real side effects from the phesgo injection personally, maybe some diahorrea occasionally but I’ve had 3 injections now (was having it IV before) and it’s been ok, I certainly would have been able to go out for dinner afterwards. Word of warning it does still affect your immune system so you should take as many precautions as you’re comfortable with x

Thank you Anna12345 that’s helpful to know, do you still get given any supporting medications?

No nothing, just the phesgo so you don’t have the steroids etc to contend with thank goodness. I’m returning to work in 3 weeks so I will be having the injection and heading to work the next day and atm I feel comfortable with that x

Thank you

Hi Amelie

I had TCHP chemo which finished end of December and still having phesgo every 3 weeks until September. Have had no real problems apart from watery eyes and an occasional looseness (not as bad as diahorrea). Has not stopped me doing anything.

I still have to see my oncologist every 3 months after having bloods done and heart scan every 4 months. X

Thank  you Gilliebean x

Hi, I'm back at work within 30 mins of having Phesgo! Very lucky, no side effects at all.  Good luck 

That’s great to hear thank you, just wanted to get back to more normality!!
