Hi all. Has anyone experienced problems with Phesgo or Docetaxel? I spent weekend in hospital with high Heart Rate and low BP. It was nearly 3 weeks after treatment and also had Covid before the previous round.
I’m having round 5 tomorrow and feeling very scared of it happening again despite reassurance from oncology.

Hi J01

I had both together for the 4 cycles of Docetaxel and experienced no issues. I have high blood pressure and started taking tablets for it during my second cycle of Docetaxel but the blood pressure was treated as a separate issue.

Phesgo just resulted in a slightly raised red 'bump' before that disappeared.

Hope it goes ok for you tomorrow.

Sending hugs x

Thank you for the reply. Fingers crossed it was just a blip with the first round. I had 3 rounds of EC with no issues. 3 more to go of Docetaxel then the Phesgo will continue on its own for 6 months. They will review if I have any problems this time xx
