Rare or not rare, this is happening to you. It's important to talk to oncologist. I believe some women here had allergy issues with Herceptin and they were given strong antihistamines during their doses. What type of solution are they using to mix the Herceptin. It could be something in the solution. Maybe they could use a different solution or just plain water. Herceptin is important for us Her2s. I trust that the doctors can manage the situation and continue your Herceptin. If not, maybe you could lobby for Tykerb.
