I have a MUGA or ultrasound done every 3 months while taking Herceptin.

Tumor marker tests are done every 3 months also. That is at my request. My onc usually does tumor markers every 3 months for the first 2 years with Her2+ patients. After 2 years he will switch to every 6 months if the patient agrees.
