Thumbs up Tykerb and Herceptin-Clinical trial

I was diagnosed with extensive high grade DCIS and .7cm IDC nottingham score of 8-9, her2neu3++ no nodes, double mastectomy, 4-ac, neutropenic fever and appendectomy, 12 weekly treatments of Taxol,herceptin and (Tykerb 1000 mg per day) Herceptin currently every three weeks. I had terrible insomnia after higher dose of herceptin, nausea, sore gums knee pain and foot cramps, rash comes and goes. I am deciding if I will continue in trial, Sick of side effects.
weight gain on taxol and herceptin and tykerb. Attempting to exercise this week. chemo brain is real. I would like to know if anyone has taken this combination? would you continue based on what you know and side effects you are experiencing.
