Muga Scan

I was on Herceptin March - June 2006 while on Taxotere got very ill with lung infection and all was stopped since only had one additional treatment. Restarted Herceptin every 3 wks from Aug til Dec 2006 when my Muga scan changed from 68% to 51% will find out next week if volume has improved now that I am off everything. Which it should be according to my onc most MUGA scans show marked improvement once Herceptin is stopped. If so can restart Herceptin (if onc approves)and try to finish or maybe the new drug
Tykerb I am going to ask my onc about starting that if I come out of remission.

Good Luck and God Bless
Cindy
