Hi Everyone. I was wondering if Perjeta and Herceptin cause hair loss. Also leg cramps and runny nose. Thanks so much for your help. for your help.
Hi
Yes to the runny nose & probably the leg cramps as well.

Definitely yes on the runny nose for Herceptin (have not taken Perjeta). I did find that my hair grew back faster when I completed my year of Herceptin.

Runny nose yes, I never had leg cramps, my hair grew back while on herceptin.

Ditto runny nose. Hair grew back on Herceptin. Cramps could be related to a lot of things. Magnesium and hydration being the most frequent culprits for me.

Runny nose absolutely. Hair is still growing really slow (last Herceptin was May 11 2015). My endocrinologist said slow hair growth is due to lack of estrogen. Guess I am running on empty there.
