Implications of triple negative bc

Hello Tarnya.  My name is Bel and I had Triple Negative Breast Cancer in 2012 diagnosed.  What a nightmare that was, the worry, the not knowing.  What I found was that there were very important people to ask certain questions, they were medical staff and I felt secure in what I was told.  The Breast Care Nurse was fantastic.  The staff at the Cancer Council fantastic!   Then there was BCNA and the friends I met and the emotional support I received.  It is just a type of Cancer, that is all, triple negative as you said.  But every one has a different situation revolving around their lump, where it is and what course of events follows that.  I never discovered any one in the Same situation as mine when I went through it 3 or so years back.  I did not have my breasts removed, just the lump and the 2 surgeries under my arm, as it occurred at the age of 47.  

I am currently being assessed for further gene analysis to determine whether there is a high risk of it returning.  Decision to remove the breasts is determined by the results of the faulty gene being present.

Good luck
