I took Prilosec for my Taxotere/Decadron induced heartburn
and it completely eliminated that discomfort for me. I have
also found that my lower back and hip benefit from some
light swimming, which reduces gravity and helps relax the
muscles in my hip & back. I know it may not be possible
for you to get to a pool, but just a thought. A warm bathrub
or shower can sometimes also help, as do ThermalCare packs.
Its hard to deal with these concerns, but hopefully one of
our suggestions will help !

What you're describing sounds like acid reflux, rather
than congestive heart
failure. Why don't you try taking Prilosec and see if it
gets better?

Could someone tell me what the procedure with Muga Scans are
when taking
Herceptin, I have asked my doctor twice because of the
little funny
feelings I
am getting in my heart and he said in 6 months he will do
one...I had one
before I had my first chemo A/C but not since... I have been
on Herceptin
since
end of April this yr. I thought I read somewhere it was
every 3 months..
the
pain I was having swallowing and down in my right side of my
chest, felt
like
the food was pushing by something and it was painful... well
the doctor
said
he thinks it is just anxiety.. i also have a sore spot on
the back ribs and
I am belching alot.. I never belched before
