Can't help much with some of your diagnosis but I had a year of Herceptin (HER2 positive) and am in my 5th year of Femara, hormonal therapy preferred for those who are post menopausal. I had no side effects from Herceptin, and the only side effects I have had from Femara is a reduction in bone density. Luckily mine was very good to begin with and I should see 5 years through with no serious damage. No joint pain, flushes etc. Like chemo, side effects can be very variable.
