Too soon for me...
Hi,
I finished my chemo-CVP-R as of Dec 14th/2010, so it's too soon for me to say. I'm doing Rituxan maint for the next 2 years and have read heart issues are possible after extended use, but will have to wait and see if it happens or not. I do still experience shortness of breath and low energy since treatment. Hopefully others with long term remission will have some feedback for you. I'm sorry you are still having issues.
Best wishes...Sue (FNHL-2-3A-6/10)0 -

I was just reading your posts, and can identify. I wore a halter monitor just three weeks ago because I was having fluttering and still have it. They found it on the monitor.
I take medicine for it. I had this before treatment but not as seriously.
But I have been noticing it more. So I dont know if it is more noticable.
I know it is so hard to put up with.

pressure
Hi, I can really relate to what your going through, I have been out of treatment and in remission for about six months now. I have dizziness, and chest pressure, along with shortness of breath. All of the symptoms before I was diagnosis. I had a stress test, Muga scan all seems to be find. Its very frustrating to say the least. I'm always thinking the cancer is back! Maybe it's the drugs, who knows, I guess we need to trust our doctors and keep our monthly check ups going.... good luck Vinny0
