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.

The Beast Within
After 18 months of not being able to shrink the tumor or better yet rid my body of the beast I turned to chemo after several treatments with Herceptin and
Perjeta
(which actually performed quite well with regards to shrinkage, however my desire to begin the natural route again as opposed to mastectomy

Newly diagnosed Stage 4 with mets to liver and bones
Mayo is starting me on Herceptin and
Perjeta
every three weeks and Taxol every week. I am ER, PR and HER2 positive. I just turned 50 and was premenopausal yet so I am receiving the Zoladex shot to put me in menopause.

Mother Dignosed with stage 4 MBC
Metastatic breast cancer treatment should start with Pertuzumab (
Perjeta
) + Hecreptine. 2. Timings of PET Scans Would love to hear some learned opinions on the same. Bit urgent as I have less time to decide. Thank you all for going through it. All opinions/suggestions are most welcome.

My current treatment is
Perjeta
and Herceptin which is not a late stage treatment. In fact Blue Cross Blue Shield will not pay for the
Perjeta
. The Manufacturer supplies it.

I have undergone 6 cycles of TCHP(chemo+canmab+
perjeta
) and two cycles of canmab +
perjeta
. In the recently taken PETCT, the primary tumor has shrinked largely and the mets in lungs and livers have resolved, the mets in bones are stable.

my tumor shrank away
Treatment with
perjeta
, herceptin and taxotere worked miracle. But next month I had severe allergy to
perjeta
so the doctor removed the drug from treatment. For now all my lesions are healing but I have mets in my brain. Treatment consists of tykerb and femara.

Why is a Mastectomy Needed?
I have had 3 rounds of treatment so far with
Perjeta
/Herceptin/ Taxotere. Tumour has completely shrunk away so far. My question is if there is no sign of an active tumour at the end of the 6 rounds then why is a mastectomy needed? I am 46 yrs old.

HER2+
I am currently doing well and now receive Herceptin and
Perjeta
every 3 weeks. Initially, I was given these two drugs with Abraxane but stopped taking Abraxane after 6 months.

Stage 4 and some advice please.
Would love to know any other similar programmes for either herceptin or
perjeta
. I am aware of couple of other companies in India, who manufacture biosimilars and can see the recent battle win court, which is very interesting.

Three-Drug Breast Cancer Regimen Slows Progression
In a Phase II randomized trial, investigators compared an aromatase inhibitor (AI) combined with pertuzumab (
Perjeta
) and trastuzumab (Herceptin) versus an AI just with trastuzumab in women with locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer, Grazia Arpino, MD, PhD, of the University of Naples Federico
