Hi there,
I also have triple neg breast cancer and I'm having chemo prior to surgery. I was given a good book by the breast care nurse called 'Breast Cancer, Taking Control' By Professor John Boyages, MD, PhD. It includes some excellent information about understanding the statistics, prognosis predictions and so on. It also has great information to help you make decisions about treatment.
I'm going with chemo first, followed by surgery, followed by radiation therapy based on the advice of my surgeon and oncologist. They are both brilliant women and my oncologist works in a practice with Fran Boyle, a member of the board for the BCNA and a feild leader in the treatment of breast cancer, so I'm very confident with her advice.
