I too had to stop taking Herceptin because a drop in my Muga from 68 to 54. I had received 6 months of Herceptin when this happened. I was off of Herceptin for 9 weeks and then had another Muga. It had come up to 57. I was put back on Herceptin at half the dose and will do this for 3 treatments every 3 weeks. I will then have another Muga to see if it has continued to go up. My onc. expects to see an increase. I did receive AC/Taxotere.
