Guest guest Posted April 29, 2006 Report Posted April 29, 2006 As if the hurdles I've jumped already are not enough. Went to see the BC surgeon on Tuesday for my 3 month check-up & my heart rate was 124. I was sent for an echo cardiogram Wednesday which shows my heart is enlarged and I now have a leaky valve. I had the mugga scan done in January before I could start chemo and that was clear. So the cardio doc & the onc have declared the Adriamycin has caused the damage which may or may not be reversible. I am now taking 2 heart meds & waiting to see how my treatment plan will change on Tuesday, which is suppose to be my 3rd treatment. After all the problems from surgery & healing that delayed starting chemo......now this. Quote
