Kadcyla 2026 Group

Hi everyone, I am on number 6 Kadcyla and coping pretty well. This came hard on the heels of starting Letrozole and radiotherapy so quite the triple whammy. Each cycle seems to be different. # 1 and 2 fine, 3 and 4 not as good and #5 I would hardly know I had had treatment. They have all been very manageable though with dry/light-sensitive eyes and some on/off fatigue being the main side effects. I was initially devastated to be on Kadcyla, especially as I only had 1.3mm of residual disease in the breast, but I am now pleased I am throwing everything at it. I just want rid of it forever and this is my best bet. :crossed_fingers:For most Kadcyla is so much easier than TCHP.

Just an idea, but if you struggle you might ask to have the infusion over a hour or longer. Lots of people on another Kadcyla support forum say this helps. I ask to have mine over 60 minutes. I also wear compression socks and gloves to lessen the likelihood of neuropathy.

Wishing everyone all the best wherever you are on your Kadcyla journey. X
