Long term herceptin only anyone ? Need some advice from experience please
Hi ladies I am 12 months into herceptin and perjeta 3 weekly infusions and suffering terribly with insane burning and itching of my arms neck and shoulders. So much my life and most of the night is ...
I am also on long term Herceptin and Perjeta and suffer insane itching. I cant find any solutions either, tried everything suggested.

Oncologist dismisses it and not a priority, but he should try lying next to me one ,night, if I don't cut my fingernails very short I scratch hard enough in my sleep to take skin off.
