Missing dose

I have returned from travel with a cold- tested negative for COVID.

I have Herceptin / perjeta in 2 days, I know I will not be better and I am worried they will tell me not to come in ( I am calling nurse tomorrow). Is it ok to miss dose? If they delay do they delay for a week or miss that dose and come back in 3 weeks?

If anyone has had experience with this, I would appreciate it. Very worried about missing a treatment

Thanks

I receive Faslodex injections every 4 weeks. When I’ve had to miss a dose, I just go the next week.

Missing a dose is unlikely to matter in the long run. Let the nurse, or whoever you talk with on the phone know about your concern about that! They'll probably be able to reassure you!
