Kadcyla Side Effects & Experience

Hi!!! I am due to start first cycle of Kadcyla on Tuesday 19th Nov post mastectomy. I already had 4 rounds of EC and 4 of Docetaxel but residual cells mean I need to now have 14 rounds of the Kadcyla.
I’ve heard mixed things about the side effects. My Oncologist assures me it is nowhere near as bad as the other chemo drugs I had (from which I felt very very unwell) and that the main side effects are some fatigue and bone/joint pain.
Come here to get honest opinions from people who have been on Kadcyla pls re how they felt and if you were unwell for how long etc? I just want to try and prepare myself for what is to come as I’m still trying to work through all of this! I know everyone responds differently but would appreciate some feedback! :slight_smile:
