My ejection fraction went down to 48% after 12 rounds of herceptin. I had terribe symptoms of CHF. I had dyspnea on exertion (couldnt walk 10 feet without getting short of breath). I stopped my herceptin and after one month my ejection fraction went back to 62% and no more symptoms of congestive heart failure. Im off the herceptin now. I feel really good. Studies are showing that less may be as good as more. So no more herceptin for me. Good luck to all of you and monitor your heart closely. Also, go with your symptoms.
