Re: Triple negs
Hi,
I am all new to this...I was diagnosed with IBC Nov 2009. Triple Neg Grade 3, started out with 4 x 3 AC then Double Mastect, 12 x weekly taxol and 25 rounds of radiaton (Yay I hit pay dirt 1st time round). Mentally okay...bit overwhelming at first but life goes on.
Not many women in my life or line of work so I thought I would read and see what other women are writing about with their experiences

Re: Triple negs
hi girls....... I finally got back to posting here sorry - I copied this from one of my posts a little while back
It scared the sh%#t outa me for a while. I searched and searched for positive stuff..... not
much out there............
here is my positive thinking now.........(this is not a this v's that post - just some positives for triple negs - and just my opinion)
Triple neg is mostly aggressive grade 3 - its positive that we get hit hard with treatment from
the get go. It is just about standard now, that even with negative nodes, triple negs will do chemo and its proven that chemo works better on er- pr- (there is a report I posted in primary under "triple negs" thread - will bump it)
It would be great to have other first line treatments but.......... positive - we dont have to do hormone treatment for 5 years, we dont have to spend a year going back for herceptin infusions every 3 weeks.
Its positive that research is beginning to show that we can nearly be called "cured" after 8 years, that does not mean we cannot get a new primary, especially if your BRCA1 or 2+ ... but cured from initial dx. With er/pr+ studies show it can recur after 20 years.
OK, my thinking.......... as long as we dont get mets (thats a whole different kettle of fish)
its the best cancer to get!

Re: Triple negs
I was diagnosed with 3neg 2009 and been thru the chemo and radiation. Some things you read scare you and others dont, totally confused(No pun intended) I received my Beacon the other day and did you see that they are doing research on 3negs, finally in Aus (As can only find a lot of work being done in USA) I am going to get involved as I feel it is really important that they do lots of research on 3 negs. It seems to be the only one they have not worried about to much and thats not good enough. You dont have to go there they get all you info from your Drs, with permission of course and the way a I read it you may have to give a blood sample. If I can help just one other person with this s... disease I have achieved something, might even help myself along the way. Yippeee. Stay well and safe all
