Hi - newbie here. I was diagnosed with secondary HER2+ that has spread to my liver and bones earlier this year; my treatment cycle is docetaxel and Phesgo. I feel like I’ve lost most of 2026 as my tolerance has not been great, but I’m coming to the end of the chemo soon at which point they want to keep me on Phesgo for a further year.
My question is about continuing side effects - I know that everyone’s experience will be different, but my concern is that the things I’ve had the most difficulty with (change in taste, loss of appetite, nausea, abdominal pain, constipation, diarrhoea and general fatigue) are also associated with Phesgo. Has anyone else had experience of continuing with Phesgo, and, if so did the side effects lessen or eventually go away? This is about quality of life for me now, which I don’t feel I’ve had for the last 4 months; I honestly don’t think I could do another year of this…
Any advice/positivity welcome!
