Hey Sherry,

The ultrasound is the Echo. I've switched from MUGA's to ECHO's, my request. I think the echo's are lower tech, older, but probably do the job. My onc doesn't tell the score, only "it's fine". I asked the onc nurse during an infusion, only to make sure that the results had actually come back, and she told me what all my scores were.

The onc was probably right in not telling me they were going down during AC. I would have stressed. I am thrilled that they're going up with Herceptin and CoQ10.
