I've learned in the past 2 yrs that my heart muscle was damaged. I was told it was probably from the Chemo. My Ejection Fraction showing low number. Then I was sent to a Cardiologist that put me on 2 drugs. Coreg/Lisinopril. Just yesterday they sent me for a stress echo which showed a problem. They think there are blockages and want to do an angiogram. It has a low risk they said but it's scaring the heck out of me. I am having a scan with dye (less invasive) first this Wed. He wanted to do the riskier test but he opted to try this scan first to see if it would show a blockage. I would sure love to hear from other women that are experiencing something similar with their heart.
