Re: Triple Negs ..
Hey JudyB,
Yes there are 5 visits, I've got 1 up my sleeve
The nurse at the GP's has organised it for me then I've got another appointment for my GP to get it all started.

Re: Triple Negs ..
I don't think you are allowed to get a clean, it has to be something that affects your health, but then who knows. It's not just cheaper, it is free. You need to ask your GP to organise it for you. I asked my GP and the nurse at her surgery organised it all for me.

Re: Triple Negs ..
Wow, so much info.
What is the GP plan? How do I sign up?
I am in need of some dental work. I need a couple fillings and a clean, wouldn't mind getting it for cheaper. Also the dietician would be good I think. What is an excersize physiologist?
Thanks again Nav, you are a fountain of info. I will ask my onc about trials.

Re: Triple Negs ..
Hmmm I'm fairly sure the GP plan is 5 visits per year which means that you should have another visit there somewhere.

Re: Triple Negs ..
Oh maybe I've called it the wrong thing? But the GP said that I had up to $4200 of Dental (which I do need as my filling has fallen out again after only being redone a few months back. Also I am entitled to 2 Dietician visits & 2 Ex Phys visits all bulk billed?

Re: Triple Negs ..
Yes, I agree about the dietician. I changed my mind about seeing one when I saw how much it cost. Mind you I have been seeing one at my gym for years and did weight watchers too and I have so much information about eating healthy that it's ridiculous. If I hadn't done any of that then I might have been more tempted.
The dentist shouldn't be part of the GP plan though so please don't waste any visits on that. There is a different scheme for dentists where you get $4200 worth of dental visits over a two calendar year period which means if you go now you will only have 14 months to use that money. Anyway, just mainly didn't want you wasting your GP plan visits on something you can get under another scheme.

Re: Triple Negs ..
Hibiscusmum, before comitting to the sessions for ECP, enquire re pricing. Ive heard dietician fees cost a lot more than the exercise physiologist.
Good luck and cheers

Re: Triple Negs ..
Jenny-pop,
I've just become part of the GP Care Plan where you are entitled to Medicare Bulk Billed services. I have chosen Dental, Dietition & an Exercise Physiologist. I believe keeping weight controlled is a big part of all of this & I'm dissapointed, although not surprised of my weight gain during chemo, so I'm giving it a go

Re: Triple Negs ..
Hi Jenny, we cannot believe stats as by the time they are collated, they are years old.
9 months would of been for advanced triple neg...... there are members here on parp
that were diagnosed with mets and have lived much much much longer than that,
the US forum site BCORG has members the same
I have read of trials in the US that include parp with chemo for early breast cancer and parp continues like herceptin does
for HER2 for a year or 9 months (I did copy it but for some reason lost it and it wont paste)
I could not find any trials in Australia for the same, only for ppl with triple neg mets
If you want to be involved in trials, I would talk to your onc and the trial admin at your hospital.
I applaud anyone who is part of a trial, it may help them but it also helps others in the future
Jenny, please dont let your head fill with stats, we are not stats!
and as mentioned above, most conclusions are 5 years old, treatments have advanced so much in this time.

Re: Triple Negs ..
Thanks so much for the bump Nav
I read the research and dont understand a lot of it. Would I qualify for the parp trial since I am triple neg, I would like to try anything and everything to stop this from coming back or metatisizing. I am super nervous after reading in there that survival is 9 months on average after reoccurance....that freaks me out.
Since reoccurance is lower with low fat diet should I see a dietician and get a super strict healthy diet plan so I can lower my chances also?
Thanks!
Jen
