Oh no !! I am so sorry Pam. It is entirely up to you if you want to wait another week to see if you can rest and get a little stronger before the next surgery. You are the only person who knows much your body can do at one time. You have to weigh the pros and cons of doing the surgery this week or next week. You might want to ask the oncologist if you can do Herceptin while you recover from surgery and before you start a new chemo.
Whatever you decide we are behind you 100%. Hang in there and keep going Pam. I have my fingers crossed for you and I think everyone else here does too.
Take good care of yourself.
