Hi
I was taking herceptin every 3 weeks but just after 2 months my MUGA scan went down from 51% tp 36%. I see a cardiologist and now my scan is back up to 53%.I just started herceptin again, and I opted for a lower dose every week, hoping that will help with the MUGA. I would definitely get a MUGA scan before you start and then check it again in a couple of months.
God Bless
