Hi
I would strongly suggest seeing a cardiologist!! My MUGA dropped from 53 to 35 after herceptin ( every 3 week cycle) I saw a cardiologist had an ECHO done ( they can visualize the heart) and was put on Coreg. and Lisinopril, I also take 100 mg Coq12.
After 2 months off of hercpetin my MUGA went back into the 50's.
Also I am now taking Herceptin once a week instead of every 3 weeks that way you take a lower dose each week that equalls what you would take every 3 weeks and that has helped me.
Best of luck and keep us posted
