bad muga scan

Has anyone been taken off Herceptin due to bad results from the muga scans? I have been on it since Aug 06. My latest scan came back with a 47% ejection down from 67% last summer. I have noticed I get worn out very easily. I was in very good shape prior to being diagnosed. (I ran competively in college) now I can't run around the block. I was told that these results are reversible but I wonder how long it will take to be myself again. While I would like to be the person I once was I am also scarried being taken off herceptin will allow the cancer to come back.

diagnosed July 06 stage IV with mets to spine
