    I had chest pains that landed me in the max care unit during my chemo. they had to stop the chemo in the fifth month, the drugs caused me heart problems. The heart problems continued, in Oct 2003, I had a heart cath. ended up w/ 2 stents in arteries, then back to room , immed. had severe chest pains, back to cath. lab. had 2 more arteries w/ blood clots, my cardiologist used balloons on those two, was at cardiologist tday, more chest pains, he is talking of another catherization if the meds he gave me today do not work w/in two weeks.
