Re: Intrathecal Herceptin/Topotecan for Leptomeningeal Disease
Well a hitch in the procedings and the ommaya surgery canceled for now. Her EKG showed some T wave abnormality. She has to make an appointment with her cardiologist and get cleared for surgery before they will do the reservoir.
I know anemia and central nervous disease can cause T wave changes. She is anemic because of the chemotherapy.
Anyone else run into this situation?
She is not having chest pain or any other symptoms. We just found this out today and the surgery was scheduled for Wednesday.
Thanks for any input.
