@carolcollins2220, does your oncologist coordinate care with your cardiologist?

Some centers have a specialty called cadio-oncology.

Mayo Clinic offers expertise in addressing heart problems (called cardio-oncology), potential or current issues. The Cardio-Oncology Clinic (https://www.mayoclinic.org/departments-centers/cardio-oncology-clinic/overview/ovc-20442193) evaluates people prior to cancer treatment and patients who have experienced side effects due their treatment.

How is your blood pressure being managed? Any changes to treatment or heart meds necessary?

Hi - they are not coordinating care. Thank you so much for responding to my post! I wasn’t aware of an oncology cardio doctor. I’ve researched in my local area and found that there is a Cardio Oncology Center at Cedars Sinai here in Los Angeles. I will be contacting them. Again, that you so much! Carol
