Chemotherapy
Had my first visit to the oncologist today. She has advised that i start Docetaxel and Carboplatin in a 4 x cycle within 6 weeks after surgery. She wants me to have the genetic testing rushed through...

I am also triple negative with a family history.
After a double mastectomy, 12 weeks of chemo with Taxol/Carboplaten, 28 radiation therapies and a full hysterectomy in 2012, I am now fit and well and living life to the full.
We don't have a lot of options for treatment, so I took everything that was available, and will always be thankful to my medical team.
Once you start it passes quickly - keep a diary for remembering dates, symptoms, questions, etc. as life gets very full on.
All the best with your treatment. Stay in touch. Big hug. xx Michelle
