Hi there @Spillsy I had triple neg last year aged 43 in left boob. No lymph nodes involved all scans clear Took it off so I only had to have chemo (8 rounds) and not rads as well chemo was enough for me that’s for sure and then took the other cancer free boob off 6 months later as my gut told me too no regrets from me either and I finished chemo oct last year and I’m fit and well and healthy. It’s a big decision to make and only one that you can make but if you want my advice it’s this...... trust in your team but also trust in yourself and what you’re gut instinct tells you that’s right for you too. I was told it’s not necessary to take the other boob off but I did it anyway as I felt that it was right for me. I’m on the very bloody long wait list for recon in qld so will cross that bridge when I eventually get there too hopes this helps. Margie xx
