I too get that "look" from the onc when I mention symptoms - YES I know that chemo symptoms are much worse - but I will be on herceptin indefinitely and these are definite QOL issues

Timeline
March 2005 - Diagnosed Stage IV age 42
April 2005 - began Herceptin, Zometa, Lupron, (every 3.5 weeks)
and Femara daily
Today - still on all of the above

Other Medication
Advair for asthma
Aciphex for reflux

Symptoms - I can't tell if the following are from being slam-dunked into menopause or from the Herceptin:
muscle pain
joint/bone pain
leg cramps and midsection cramps/pain
stiffness
memory loss - difficulty with word recall
slower though processes in general
insomnia
peeling nails
Slowwwwwww hair growth
tingly hands - shoulder/arm pain leading to hands
dry mouth
dry eyes
dry skin
headaches - worse right after infusion
hot flashes
shift in weight - all going to midsection - bloaty
I smell funny for a day or two

I'll edit if I think of others
