:) Hi ladies has anyone else gained weight whilst on Herceptin ? I asked my chemo nurse and she said she didn't know if this was a side effect :confused: Just wondered if anyone else had this problem. I have put on 2 stone so far. Hope that you are all well

Hi Phyl..how are you???
I havent been on hercepton, but have gained some weight on every other med that I seem to have taken during my bc journey..and Im not liking it very much!! Im presently on elavil for fibro..and my onc tells me that he prescribes that to people who lost too much weight during chemo..YIKES that certainly wasnt the case with me..but it is a drug that is supposed to help with the fibro pains..
Hope someone out there who is on hercepton will chime in here and let you know how they are making out!!
take care PHYL, nice seeing you on,
hugs,
