Her2 positive grade 2

Anyone else had this diagnosis, having chemo first, had 5 sessions, two left, started docetaxel on session 4 with herceptin and pertuzumab and was horrible, so I'll, they reduced docetaxel on session 5 and was a lot better but still haven't returned to work, operation to be lumpectomy at the moment and maybe radiotherapy, feel like all I do is visit hospitals and only get a few days where I feel well does this get better?
