I had a Echo and a EKG in December, I have no symptoms of heart failure and so the oncologist is going according to the guidelines. The guidelines said that if it hasn't fallen at least 10 from the baseline and the patient is asymptomatic that they should give treatment twice more and retest. I was a little surprised because I thought they would take me off it for a couple of months and then retest.

I just joined a health club and I am having no trouble doing aerobic exercise.

Have they ever been able to restart you on Herceptin Paris? How long were you on it before they stopped it?
