43% cardiac output. How come I feel so well?
I went for my 3 monthly heart scan last week, I continue on herceptin. I had to stop for 4 weeks as my cardiac output dropped to 44% . It was rechecked in a month and back to 58% ...but better method ...
Hi Kath,
I think your technician needs a kick in the backside from his superiors - what an attitude!
Do hope that your Oncologist finds 43% okay to go ahead - your weight loss is admirable and you also have much better fitness levels than last time - well done.
I didn't have Herceptin as I am triple negative, but still had to take a Symbicort Turbohaler for shortness of breath at times, despite regular exercise and healthy weight. Just an after effect of chemo/rads I think. Best of luck!
