Hi @Shellbelle_75
I've also recently been diagnosed with triple negative, mine is ductal. I was completely terrified and overwhelmed to begin with but after seeing my Oncologist and starting chemo I'm feeling much more at ease. I have learned that while some of the other targeted treatments won't work for us we often respond really well to chemo.
Good luck with the results next week. The waiting can be painful but you'll have a plan in place soon enough and you'll feel so much better.
