Cardiac function, MUGA results
Hi all,
I just had my 3rd MUGA scan Tuesday. I am done with my 4 DD A/C and have 1 more of 12 Taxol/Herceptin tomorrow(6/20). My results have gone down each time. 72%,66%,63%. My dr assures me that my results are still good, but the decrease concernes me. I will start every 3 week Herceptin for the next 10 months and tamoxifin. Any one have cardiac issues? When did your doc get concerned?
Cheryl
