Rapid heartbeat from ????
I have struggle with a periodic rapid heart beat all my life. It has always gone back to a normal rate within a few minutes to maybe the longest two hours until today. I have talked with my cardiologist and will see her nurse tomorrow. Could this be from Herceptin?? Heart rate has been 120 since early this afternoon, and nothing I do, even a double dose of the medication as prescribed by the cardiologist, gets it back to its normal rate of 70. Has anyone had this issue?
