Herceptin Sub Cut Injection
Just wondering if anyone is having their Herceptin via injection? i had my first of these on wed (previously via port iv), the needle stayed in my leg for 5 mins as they can only inject a ml a minute...
@JoeyLiz That's exactly how I started, with a WLE and a sentinel node biopsy. Two weeks should be perfect.
Yes, it was rough at the start. I'm healing well and chuffing about slowly. Lots of rest breaks and I've had it by about 4pm. A good sleep works wonders. I had one last night and today felt better. Gotta stay on top of the meds though, the pain comes back pretty quickly if I don't.
Oncologist tomorrow. AI discussion. Dreading.
I'm trying to stay in the moment as much as possible...
