I just love reading & hearing stories such as yours!
Congratulations on passing the 5 year mark, that's gotta be the best feeling
It's so easy to get caught up in all the negative that we read (especially when we're triple neg).
I'm at home recovering from my bilateral mastectomy/recon & truly feel like I can now start to put all this behind me & move on
Thanks for giving inspiration.

Re: Roll call
Hi everyone
I was dx in 2006 - the day I turned 36
my boys were 4 & 5yo at the time
I have no family history of BC
(maternal uncle with prostate at 60yo)
Triple Neg
1.4cm IDC - 5cm DCIS
2+ nodes
Had lumpectomy followed by partial mastectomy followed by bilateral mastectomy
with immediate recon with silicon implants
(got all the IDC with lumpectomy but margins were always not clear on DCIS)
I did 6 x FEC at freemasons in melbourne
So, I just passed the 5 years from dx

Re: Roll call
Hey Sheree, I was diagnosed triple neg 2 years ago, age 34 (with a 9 mth old and 5 year old). No family history of breast or ovarian whatsoever. Genetic testing done, results negative but as they tell me this is limited by science, so not necessarily negative as such. So I certainly don't assume I don't have some kind of gene mutation. Lumpectomy and SNB followed by 3 x fec, 3 x taxotere, 30 x rads.
There's lots of us triple negs about, but I know for me I don't get on here very often as I am very busy with work and kids and getting back into "normal" life.

Diagnosed 7 May 2009 @ 34 yrs - lumpectomy and SNB 22 May 2009 - 1.9cm triple neg nodes all clear - FEC x 3/Taxotere x 3 - 30 x rads.

Re: Roll call
I tracked my mutations back through mum having ovarian cancer, which was caused by either BRCA 1or 2 and then through my grandfather.
Scanziety - how anxious I am having scans. Sends me into a meltdown!
Fertility - need to decide if I want another child very soon. Many factors for and against. Have tried for a few months this year but no luck.

Re: Roll call
Hi again,
I was dx when my son was 9 months old, so I understand the stress of having young children and worrying about the future. It is very scary.
I didn't really change my diet. I saw a naturopath a few months after treatment finished but I just couldn't do all if the things she suggested such as no meat, regular juicing and only organic veggies. I believe i have a balanced diet, but still enjoy treats. I do exercise more now and try to keep fit.
I don't have siblings but my Mum died of ovarian cancer at 48. The genetic testing wasn't too bad as I strongly suspected I would have a positive result. I just didn't expect the two mutations!
I was very anxious about recurrence the first year of diagnosis and read so much on the internet. I don't really have answers on how to cope with the fear. Exercising and getting stronger helped mentally and just being busy with my little boy was a great distraction. I only recently began seeing a psych who is helping me with scanziety and also helping me with decisions regarding fertility and hysterectomy, which I need to do in the next few years.
The only other advice I have is too not look too far ahead or worry about things that haven't happened. Easier said than done, I know but it was a strategy that I used and still use when I was feeling overwhelmed.
Hugs

Re: Roll call
I'm a triple neg, diagnosed 12 months ago at 40. Axillary clearance & 2 tumours removed. It was on my pec muscle. Have had chemo & radio & came out the other side, all good now. I have had gene testing done & it was negative. Been seriously thinking about having a double mastectomy lately. Only cos my LB is a tad sore & hard & it worries me.
Have my mammogram & check with my BS on the 14th so I'll wait till then & see wots going on.
