Different strokes for Different Docs
I think it is sometimes good that all Docs don't do things the same way. I think each person needs to be treated as an individual based upon their particular cancer situation, health needs, emotional needs etc.
For example, I have never had a MUGA but have had an echocardiogram every three months. It seems to give the doctor the right level of information about how my heart is reacting to the Herceptin etc.
I have about 3 more treatments and then should be done with Herceptin. yeah!!! Kool
