Just Herceptin and Perjeta - side effects

I'm on neo adjuvant TCHP, but some women at my cancer site are being now offered Perjeta along with their Herceptin. Has anyone done this and what are their side effects. Ideally, would be someone who had been on just Herceptin, and now is on Herceptin plus Perjeta, as that would give me an idea what the addition of Perjeta does. Also, yes, I do know what are the documented side effects.
