Several of the girls here experienced what you have and after a break from Herceptin their heart function recovered and they were able to resume Herceptin, some with the help of BETA blocker drugs if I'm remembering correctly. So, given that you've hopefully had sufficient Herceptin to give you protection from recurrence, your heart should in time recover although I would advise you to see a heart specialist and be followed on this. Then if you should ever need Herceptin again, you will hopefully be able to receive it, although given your current onc's opinion you would perhaps need a second opinion.
Hang in there, and see a heart specialist.
