Hi @Sam09,
I am on Herceptin and did have some itchy days although it's calmed down now.
I'm not on Perjeta.
Have you tried antihistamine? Or calamine ?
just a thought.
How long is delivery time with the Herceptin.?
I hear it used to be scheduled for 30 minute delivery but Ocologist discovered more patients had side effects ( mine was headaches) when at fast speed so now I get infusion over 60 minutes and have no problem.
best of luck.
