Anyone on kadcyla

[TilliP]

Hello. I haven't posted in this group before. I have a question. I was dx with breast cancer 4 years ago and metastatic 2 years ago. It's in my bones and I had lots of spots on my brain. Too many to count according to the radiologist. Well now I have some nodules in my left lung and my oncologist is stopping my xeloda, holding the tykerb and gonna start me on kadcyla. With all that being said. Has anyone been on kadcyla? How did you tolerate it? What were your side effects? Any info would be greatly appreciated. I'll let you know how it works out for me in a few weeks! 😀

I most definitely will let you know how it goes. My 1st infusion will be Aug 16.

Well I had my 1st infusion of kadcyla on Thursday Aug 16,2018. Today (Saturday) I feel absolutely horrible. My head hurts and my body aches like the flu. Is this normal? Any advice would be great.
