@socoda that is interesting reading. Thanks for the link. @Carols i have not seen anything on the number of doses of chemo just the combinations. It seems most oncologists want to hit triple negative hard. I was triple negative and considered high risk ...larhe tumor and positive lymph nodes. Had neoadjuvant AC on 3 weekly cycles x4 then Paclitacel/Carboplatin. I was meant to have the latter weekly for 12 weeks but after 4 weeks it was evident the tumor was growing again so it was stopped and i had surgery and another 2 dose dense AC after the surgery as a safety net, followed by radiation. I am heading towards 3 years since diagnosis and all is good other than joint pain relating to menopause. I am trying hard not to think about what might happen and take heart in the knowledge that the more time passes it gets less likely :)
