Cathy, Herceptin 1xwk or every 3wks? I have no problem on weekly, but went on every 3 wk in 6 mos. my EF was down to 30% by echo, no symptoms. Had to be off Herceptin for about 3 mos. and a recurrance to skin mets. I have been back on weekly Herceptin w/ no heart problems, recent echo was 52%.
Everyone is different and the every 3wk seems to be fine for most. Hope this helps, and things will improve quickly at 48% EF. Hang in there Velva
