#1 and primary
This is Semirhage! You CANNOT, I REPEAT, CANNOT trust ANYTHING she says. I admit Rand is in sorry shape, but I think he is a long way from terminal madness. Just because Semi said such cases often result in terminal madness does not mean this is so. It may be that every case does, or 1 in 5, or 1 in 5,000, or 1 in 5 million, or none ever; we have no way of knowing.
#2
The soul that is Rand al'Thor, and Lews Therin (RJ has said that it is one soul with two personalities)is already bound to the Horn, I doubt that blowing it will do anything to reconcile those two personalities. The only way I can see that happening is for one personality to die. I think that is the basis for the "to live, first you must die" answer the fins gave Rand in TSR.
NaCl(that is my take on it anyway)H2O

Rereading Knife of Dreams and what Semirhage said flipped a switch in my head...
