Hi Winship
I haven't had the combination of drugs you mention but noticed that you hadn't had any replies to your post yet.
While you're waiting for replies you could type 'trastuzumab, docetaxel and pertuzumab' into the search bar in the group to see if it brings up any previous posts which mention these three drugs.
You might also like to take a look at this information that Macmillan has produced about the combination of pertuzumab, trastuzumab and docetaxel. It tells you about the drugs, when they are given and the possible side effects. I know it's not the same as hearing about someone's personal experience but I hope it will help.
Another avenue you could explore is to post your question in the ask a nurse section of the online community and one of the specialist nurses will aim to respond within 2 working days.
When you have a minute, it would be really useful if you could pop something about your journey so far into your profile as it really helps others when answering or looking for someone with a similar diagnosis. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
Wishing you all the best with your treatment.
