I had crusty nose, achy ankles when I first got up from laying down and the thin ridged nails. I took my last herceptin (my 1 year) September 13th. The nose cleared up and my aches went away, but my nails continue to be a problem. Due to a recurrence, I started herceptin again Jan 4 and the achy ankles are starting to come back, my nose isn't too bad yet.
