I had my ovaries removed last week followed by infusions of herceptin, pertusamab and Faslodex shots just 48 hours after the surgery. I feel absolutely exhausted and I’m starting to worry that something else is wrong. I’ve always done very well with my treatments, but the injection site of the Faslodex is hurting this time and I’m wondering if I’m just really feeling the side effects of that drug. If you had this surgery, how long did your recovery take and did you have your regular treatments very soon after the surgery? Many thanks for any comments

    Kerrigan1, oh my, surgery alone can really take time to recover, with then your additional treatments, you'll need to be kind to yourself, and give yourself some time. Hoping others chime in who may have gone through something similar.
