Had to stop Herceptin

[karenann]

I am feeling a little depressed. I went in for my Herceptin today and they wouldn't let me take it. Apparently, my ejection fraction has dropped significantly, from 64 to 53. I am hoping that with a little rest, I will be able to go back on it and completed the 6 treatments I have left. Any hints on getting my ef back up? I exercise everyday and eat really well.

Thanks,

Karen

Talk to your onc. I take Co enzyme 10, but got clearance first. I took three months off from Herceptin and my ejection fraction went right back up. I am now back on Herceptin and all is well...Keep doing what you do!
