Hi Joannemcfc,

I haven't, but my husband did.  Prior to having treatment he didn't have any heart issues, but after having chemo he  had quite a few instances of SVT.  The first time he called an ambulance, but it happened quite a few times, even when he was in hospital.  His oncologist prior to any treatment had told him a small percentage of patients could have issues with their heart following the particular chemo treatment he had.  He had Folfox with the first chemo treatment, but I can't remember what the components of folfox were.

Take care.  Sue
