Hi Joletta,

My MUGA has slowly dropped from 65 in April to 57 in July and 52 at the beginning of October. My Onc. did not express any concern. I have had 10 doses of Herceptin (every 3 weeks.) I do take cod liver oil capsules and I also drink a lot of water, particularly the night before any test or bloodwork and it does help with blood pressure etc. to have a larger volume of blood in your system due to hydration. Can you talk to the Pharmacist at your treatment centre to see if she has any suggestions?

Good luck,

Deirdre
