I've had surgery - Laprascopic Oophorectomy, LD reconstruction and Reduction of other breast (done in 2 ops 3 weeks appart. Longest was the LD/reduction - about 5 hours). Neither my Oncologist or Surgeon was concerned about surgery whilst on Herceptin. All of this has happened in the last few weeks so I can't comment on long term issues however all of my wounds are healing well (and the surgery went "as expected" by Surgeon).
