Hi Sandy - It's been a while since I've been to this board. I saw your message and thought I'd say hello and add my two sense. I did experience shortness of breath and the pressure from the Herceptin. Three months ago, I dropped to a 47 (from a 56) on the MUGA. My onc gave me three months off from the Herceptin and my MUGA is now up to a 64 (YEAH). I will go back on the Herceptin soon with mixed emotions.
