I had a lot of aches and pains with herceptin, and my nails broke constantly. I also broke bones in my foot twice during the nine months I took herceptin. Never broke a bone before, and haven't broken any since. Memory was definitely affected. Be careful, pamper yourself and know that it will get better. Be patient with yourself when treatment ends. It takes time to get back to "normal."
