Cathy, My muga started out at 63% then dropped to 46% right around the end of my year of Herceptin. They don't worry about it til it drops below 50% i thought. Anyother thing, i think the echo's read a little higher then the MUGA's. That is what i've found. Mine came back up to 55% after stopping Herceptin after the year. Most of the time it will come up again. Ask to stick with the echo's to monitor. Then you won't have the nuclear med with it.
