My doctor is going to be on vacation next week, guess I will talk to the nurse and raise my concerns to her. I have been worried about damage to my heart, had heart surgery in 1984 for an Artrial Septal Defect and lately have been getting out of breath like I was before heart surgery.

I had them make me a copy of the Order Sheet so am sure about drugs.
Shows the following:
Epirubicin 200mg
Cytoxan 1000mg
5FU looks like 1000mg
Decadron 10mg
Herceptin 600mg

He also has me going back the next day for a Neulasta shot 6mg.

Thanks Al, Chelee and Christine for replying and giving me your imput, I really appreciate it.
