Hi
I'm TNBC but did 6 rounds of TAC not FEC. As i had lymph node involvement, chemo wasnt a choice but Given the agressive nature of TNBC i think its a good idea.
I have strongly taken the preventative side, so i've had both breasts removed, ovaries out and radiotherapy.
I made all of these decisions so i would have no regrets if there's a recurrence. The worst thing for me would be to think that I should have done something e.g. The radiotherapy was done after i sought a second opnion.
Good luck making your decision. Maybe you could discuss further with your oncolgist - i'm sure if she's suggeting chemo its probbebly the best path.
Sorry i dont know about ports or the public/private questions.
