This is my first time with enhertu. I’m very sick with her2 plus estrogen plus breast cancer. Chatgpt is saying first line would be tratusamab perjeta docetaxol or paxlitaxol. My doctor started me on enhertu. It has been very harsh on me. I am exhausted and the stomach pains have been really bad. l feel like perhaps the side effects from this enhertu are too intense for me. Ive eaten very little.

Does anyone have experience with both of these treatment options? The traditional chemo route or enhertu? How long before results? Were the results successful. The side effect differences? Was any easier to deal with? Please let me know your experience. thank you.

Guys I have lots of upper stomach pain on enhertu. They just called me and said that’s not a side effect of enhertu and the doctor knows everything about the research. And they can’t give me any prescription for it other than anti nausea. Then I sat there and ran around long denying conversation with the nurse about it telling me how it’s not a thing from enhertu and there’s nothing they can do until I kept asking and asking if it’s acid or there’s some stomach pain medication me having to be more aggressive. She said if I think it’s acid she can give me something for that finally. please is this normal? I told her chatgpt said it could be and offered a list of medications. She said chatgpt isn’t reliablue. I ask surely the doctor could give me some prescription for upper stomach pain without me having to go through all that. Is this normal.
please someone.

Any advice how to get through this. 4th day stomach pain weakness nausea. I took the anti nausea prescription yeaterday about 3 times ondansteron. But I noticed that since I took it I still felt nauseous but was completely unable to throw up. So I don’t know which sensation is worse. Maybe I would just prefer if I could throw up and get some relief. So that’s why I haven’t take it today. Haven’t gone to the bathroom in 5 days. Very weak. I tried taking a Metamucil gummy today. Any tips any advice get through this would be appreciated. And how long were you on enhertu before noticing any improvement or results in your condition? Thanks.

I’m sorry to post so much. Tomorrow is my appointment with the doctor after waiting over a month for the biopsy. I went through a lot of pain and became more and more unable to do things as the month progressed. They scheduled my appointment for Friday. During this week waiting for this appointment the lymph nodes in my neck swelled up even more big and it has been extremely scary and painful. I became disabled the first time around that I went to this place with a different doctor. Which was confirmed by the orthopedic surgeon I consulted with that they were supposed to have me see him first but didn’t. I really feel traumatized and from this second time around too after leaving multiple messages to try to schedule something sooner but never hearing back not even that they tried or anything. I have heard from the nurse though who finally offered for pain pills after I had mentioned that I haven’t any pain medications this whole time. Has anyone else been through anything like this? Becoming disabled or having issues with their doctor? I really need some words of encouragement. I can’t imagine keep going like this. Thank you.
