Survivor guilt
She was advised 6 cycles of taxol+carboplatin +
herceptin
+ Perjeta, followed by
herceptin
and perjeta until progression. But, as she didn’t have insurance, she refused to take this treatment, primarily due to the cost involved, approx Rs.3,50,000 ($6000) per cycle.

Trastuzumab
Yesterday I took second opinion from oncologist, she told me that as per new protocol and research 8 cycle of
herceptin
gives same result as 17. So no need of 17 cycle . Pls guide me.

The Courts do not support blanket bans of treatment by Clinical Commissioning Groups and give grounds for Judicial Review
Civ 392, the Court of Appeal quashed a policy not to fund
Herceptin
but in exceptional clinical circumstances, which had been upheld by the High Court, on the grounds that the circumstances that would make a case exceptional were not clear.

5 years still here
I still get infusions every 21 days of
herceptin
and perjeta but they are keeping me here in this life. My scan earlier this month was clear and my echocardiogram was normal. Had my last medical appointment for 2018 last week, woohoo!

Chills after infusion
Hi, Today was my 30th infusion of
herceptin
+perjeta, till date I did not have any side effects, but today within 2 hours of infusion I had chills which lasted for 3 hours. Am feeling alright now; any reasons this would have happened all of a sudden. Thanks

Refusing Chemo
They want me to have chemo along with
herceptin
and perjeta which kills off the her2 protein. I absolutely refuse to have chemo but I will have the
herceptin
and perjeta infusions.

Delay in Radiation Therapy
She underwent 6 cycles of TCH and will continue with the targeted therapy
Herceptin
for 17 cycles. She tolerated the chemo pretty well but the surgical wound had not healed well and we started seeing puss discharge from the 5th chemo cycle.

Anyone have swelling of feet? Is this a side effect of Imbruvica? I’ve been taking this for a little more than 2 years.
Went through the watch and wait for 15 years then I was diagnosed with stage 1 breast cancer hr2+ I was treated with taxol &
herceptin
About a year later my lymph nodes started to swell in my neck. When they got uncomfortably big my doctor started me on Imbruvica.

Genetic mutation test
I believe this is for immunotherapy and dad will be screened to see if PD-L1 is a marker for him ( he is not suitable for
herceptin
). My question really i guess is...the private company can test for 505 genes but I'm not sure of the efficacy or where it could lead us.

My MRI was clear and I am on
Herceptin
. Sorry for rambling and slightly off topic post. But perhaps someone out there has been in the same situation.

Anyone been prescribed Neratinib (Nerlynx)?
Now that my
Herceptin
is finished my doctor wants me to take Neratinib for a year, but I just can't get past the diarrhea side effect! I'm not sure I can be tied to my bathroom for a whole year! And from what I've read, the risk doesn't really outweigh the benefit!

Constant burps, side effects of chemo and herceptin?
She finshed chemo last week and will be on
herceptin
for an year. Do people on chemo and
herceptin
face this issue? Her liver mets got cleared after 3rd chemo and lung nodules are dormant and was declared as ground glass opacties during lady scans. Anything to worry about? Thank you.
