Louise, as you are hormone negative i would definitely do the chemo to get Herceptin. Maybe due to your age they may give you a lighter dose???? They hit the young ones hard. I am 40 and found my chemo not too bad. I had FEC like Nedra so i can't comment on ac/t. Also, seeing as you had a mastectomy, you probably won't need radiation. Re mastectomy v lumpectomy, that is to do with spread not nodes.
Re QOL with your husband retiring, initially it may be frustrating but you will have him there to look after you and everything else. Then when you are back on top of things after you can get on with things. These things are sent to test us I think!
Good luck with your decisions.
