I go back on Jan 10 for another muga. My muga score dropped 16 points in one year so the onc stopped Herceptin. I had 9 months of it Herceptin, and I will discuss with the doctor -- depending on muga score -- whether to finish the year. But frankly my feeling today is that I'm finished. I don't know if I want to shock my heart again, even if its' only 3 more times. Good luck and God bless to all my BC sisters who had cardio reactions to Herceptin. I have a feeling it's more like 30% of us instead of 5%. MJO
