I had to go off Herceptin due to abnormal Muga. I received 9 doses (I think) At first I was pretty upset, but was thankful that I was able to tolerate that many. It was the opinion of 2 oncologist that due to the Muga I stop the herceptin and not receive anymore. I have since have requested Echo's instead of Muga's.
